Scallops in champagne sauce

Post #259,613 by Silverlock 6/21/06 5:14:28 PM Reply	Scallops in champagne sauce I've been making this one for a few years and it always gets a good review from the consumers. Dead simple to make. 1 pound of scallops, undrained 1-2 cloves fresh garlic 5-6 green onions chopped well into the green Fresh ginger to taste 1 half pound butter Angel hair pasta Melt butter in large fry pan Saute garlic, onions and ginger (I use 3 thin slices off a fat end) add in scallops and juice cook scallops till they are just getting firm then remove them from pan add one glass of champagne to sauce and reduce add scallops back for 30 seconds or so. About the time you start to reduce the champagne, start your angel hair pasta. It should be finished by the time the scallops get done. This is taste treat but it's delicate so be careful with side dishes. Sugar snap green beans is good or a simple salad with a light dressing. Finish the champagne with the meal. I also like Irish soda bread with this but that might be too much carbs for some. ----------------------------------------- Impeach Bush. Impeach Cheney. Do it now.

You just listed a recipe for 2-3 people that contains pasta combined with a lb of scallops. An interesting aspect of scallops is that is the ONLY animal you can't eat on Atkins - it contains too many carbs. And then you have a 1/2 lb of butter - huge amount of fat. And someone could be worried about a bit of Irish soda bread? Please tell me you were joking. Note: It sounds delicious.
