Ingredients
10 oz Sustainably Sourced Sea Scallops
8 oz Basil Fettuccine Pasta
2 ear Corn
4 oz Snow Peas
1 each Shallot
1 each Lemon
1 bunch Mint
¼ cup Marinated Artichoke Hearts
1 tbsp Capers
1 oz Garlic & Herb Flavored Butter
¼ cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
¼ cup Cream
¼ cup Panko Breadcrumbs
¼ tsp Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
How to make it
1
Take the pasta out of the refrigerator. Bring a large pot of salted water (3/4 full) to a boil. Rinse and dry all produce. Finely zest the lemon to get 2 teaspoons (4 tsp for 4 servings), then quarter and deseed it. Strip the corn kernels from the cobs. Halve the snow peas crosswise, removing tough strings if desired. Finely chop the shallot(s). Roughly chop the artichokes. Pick the mint leaves off the stems.
2
Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a nonstick pan over medium-high. Add the breadcrumbs and lemon zest; season with salt and pepper. Cook stirring frequently 2-3 minutes until lightly golden. Transfer to a plate. Wipe out the pan.
3
In the same pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high. Add the corn and snow peas in an even layer. Cook undisturbed 2-3 minutes until lightly charred (corn may pop). Add the shallot, artichokes, and capers; season with salt, pepper, and as much red pepper flake as you like. Cook stirring occasionally 2-3 minutes until the vegetables soften. Transfer to a bowl. Wipe out the pan.
4
Separate the pasta strands by hand and add to the boiling water. Cook stirring occasionally 3-4 minutes until al dente. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup pasta water (1 cup for 4 servings), and return the pasta to the pot.
5
Pat the scallops dry. Remove and discard the tough side muscle from each. Season both sides with salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in the pan over medium-high. Sear in a single layer 3-4 minutes until browned on the bottom. Flip and cook 30 seconds to 1 minute more until just cooked through. Remove from heat.
6
Add the cooked vegetables, cream (shake the packet), butter, half the parmesan, the juice of 2 lemon wedges (4 wedges for 4 servings), and half the reserved pasta water to the pot. Cook over medium-high, stirring constantly, 1-2 minutes until the pasta is coated and glossy, adding more pasta water gradually if needed. Serve topped with the scallops, toasted breadcrumbs, remaining parmesan, and torn mint. Offer the remaining lemon wedges on the side.
