Scallops Condimenti

2 T Butter
1 T Roasted Garlic Oil
1 lb Sea Scallops or Bay Scallops
1/2 C White Wine, Water or Broth
1/2 lb Pasta, prepared as directed on package
4 T Balsamic Condimenti

Heat 1 Tablespoon of butter and Roasted Garlic Oil in a frying pan until very hot, but not smoking. Add scallops. (Note, if the scallops are wet, dry them off with a paper towel first. This will help them to get nice and brown.) Let the scallops cook in the pan until they are seared and quite brown (not burned!) You'll know it's time to flip them when they release from the pan without sticking.

Turn the scallops over and cook on the other side until they are brown too. Remove the scallops from the pan. Put the pan back on the burner and get it hot. Add liquid and let it boil, scraping all of the brown yummy stuff off the bottom (this is called "deglazing" the pan.) Add one tablespoon of butter (to round out the flavors- you can omit it if you're going low-fat.) Let the sauce boil until it reduces to half. Once complete, pour the sauce over freshly cooked pasta and toss. Place servings of pasta on each plate. Place the scallops on top of the pasta and drizzle each plate with 1 T of Balsamic Condimenti. Serve and Enjoy! Serves 4
