quick and easy meals for 1 or 2

If you have a busy schedule and live alone or with 1 other, nice meals that are quick and easy might keep you from doing packaged or fast food. You will enjoy your meals more, eat healthier and impress your "other". I'll be posting new recipes and advice to save you from the fast food syndrom.

Baked Scallops Recipe

8-10 sea (the bigger ones) scallops
olive oil for the fry pan
1/2cup white wine
Salt
3 Tbsp butter, separated 1 ½ Tbsp and 1 1/2 Tbsp
½ medium onion, chopped fine
2 1/2 Tbsp flour
1/2 cup fine bread crumbs

Preheat oven to 400°F. drizzle a little olive oil in medium Sauté or frying pan. Medium heat. Put in the scallops. Add the wine and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer, cover and simmer for 4 minutes. No longer. Remove the scallops to a casserole baking dish or if you don’t have one of those an all metal fry pan will work. Pour off the cooking liquid to a separate container and reserve.

Heat 1 1/2 Tbsp butter in the sauté or frying pan on medium heat. Add the onions and cook until wilted, a couple minutes.
Slowly sprinkle the flour and add the cooking liquid over the butter onion mixture, whisking (if no whisk use a pancake flipper) vigorously while you do so. As soon as the sauce is thickened, add it to the scallops in the baking dish/pan. Stir carefully to get the scallops into the sauce.
Sprinkle bread crumbs over the scallops and dot with the remaining butter. Bake in the oven at 400°F until bubbly and brown, approximately 15 minutes.

Your veggie tonight is a salad of your choice. Lettuce, tomato, onions, spinach, broccoli, zucchini, anything you want with your favorite dressing. Do this while the scallops are in the oven.
Serves 2
Serve it up!!! With lemon slices, salad and the rest of the white wine!!
