Scallops and Broccolli by Request

[Bill Schultz]

So the CEO requested my Scallop dinner with her favorite vegetable broccoli.

As per Jac Pepin I listened to what he said, which was that the best part of broccoli is the stalk. He peels the outer layer of the broccoli and cuts it up. I listened and tried it. He was right as usual. Delicious.

Was going to fire up the OTG but the skies were turning black and threatening so went with the Genesis

A little Curmudgeon to help me smooth out my actions and Scallops wrapped in Prosciutto, and topped with a little Fresh Ground Pepper and a new favorite I found at Williams and Sonoma, Meyers Lemon seasoning.

After the first turn, the fragrance is driving me nuts

Done and heading in

The table, set with some Yellow Saffron Rice, and some nice wine called Pomelo

Your plate, I think you will enjoy it

That looks great Bill!

 

[John Solak]

Outstanding looking meal, I love scallops but never have wrapped anything around them before.

 

[Tony R]

Scallops look good.... This a cook I want to try.

 

[Bill Schultz]

John I used to use bacon that I would cook a little before wrapping it around the scallops. But the delicate flavor of the scallops was over powered with the bacon. I switched a couple of years ago to using prosciutto. Huge difference in flavor and texture. All my friends and family request them constantly. It's a winner. Give it a try.

Great use of alternate pork wraps. Love the idea of the prosciutto.

Bill as always, some good ideas here. I always enjoy your posts. Thanks for the education on the broccoli. Great looking plate..... but you know that.

[Brian Dahl]

Very nice meal, Bill! Prosciutto wrapped scallops sounds divine & you can't beat the brocc...

 

[Bob Correll]

Bill,
You always have the best looking plate, and table settings!
I need to take lessons.
And your food looks divine, as always, too!

[Peter Gallagher]

looks great - Scallops are so good on the grill -

You've really been cooking up a storm lately - what I'd consider weekend cooks, all week long - I've really enjoyed them!

 

[Bill Schultz]

Thanks Pete, much appreciated

 

[Jim Lampe]

Bill, from what I can see looking out this ▼ window....

did it rain at all???... looks quite sunny and/or bright out there....
hate it when you wanna grill and the skies open up

Looks like you win either way, Great cookin'!!

 

[Bill Schultz]

Never did rain, just dark clusters coming through, a smidge of drizzle and then nothing. Most of the summer we had here was like that.

Great looking meal Bill. Scallops perfectly prepared!
