[Healthy_Recipes_For_Diabetic_Friends] Scallops with Essences of Orange and Rosemary

 

 I first tested this without the ginger and thought the flavor needed a little something, so I stirred a little ginger into half of the recipe and Dijon mustard into the other half. Both tasted really good, but I opted for the ginger.
scallops
  • ¼ cup orange juice
  • 1 teaspoon minced ginger
  • ½ teaspoon grated orange rind
  • ¼ teaspoon dried rosemary, crumbled
  • Salt to taste
  • 2 teaspoons butter
  • ½ pound scallops
1 In a small bowl, stir together the orange juice, ginger, orange rind, rosemary, and salt.

2 In a medium nonstick skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add the scallops and cook until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Remove scallops from skillet. Pour the orange mixture into the skillet and cook until slightly thickened, about 1 to 2 minutes. Return scallops to skillet and toss, coating in the sauce.
