Of all the proteins scallops are my favorite. Sweet and succulent they make any dinner feel special. John did a great job cooking them in our cast iron frying pan. He made sure it was really hot before he put them in. Then a couple of minutes on one side and even less on the other and they are done. Talk about fast food!

For my part I steamed some small red potatoes and when they were about done I put the snow peas in on top for a couple of minutes. They were warmed through but still crisp. To go with the scallops I whipped up a little tartar sauce. It’s great on the potatoes too!

Make an ordinary day special with seared scallops, snow peas, and small potatoes
