Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 4, 1 cup per serving

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium to large zucchini, diced
1 teaspoon bottled minced garlic or 2 medium garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme, crumbled
Pepper to taste
1 pound bay or sea scallops, rinsed and patted dry
10 to 12 cherry tomatoes, halved
1/3 cup dry white wine (regular or nonalcoholic)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    In a 12-inch skillet or a Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium-high heat, swirling to coat the bottom. Cook the zucchini, garlic, thyme, and pepper for 5 to 8 minutes, or until the zucchini is tender-crisp, stirring occasionally.

    Step 2

    Gently stir the scallops, tomatoes, and wine into the zucchini mixture. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes for bay scallops or 4 to 5 minutes for sea scallops, or until the scallops have turned white and the zucchini is tender, stirring occasionally.
