Recipe: Lemon Ginger Scallops

Good Morning Everyone, I am fortunate enough to be able to write a weekly column for TheAjnabee.com. This week I wrote a recipe for Lemon Ginger Scallops. The full recipe and article can be found on www.theajnabee.com. Here are the deets: Ingredients: 1lb. sea scallops 1TB. of canola oil 2 c. of fresh lemon juice Zest of one lemon 2 inch piece of ginger, grated 1 tsp. of honey Salt/pepper PREPARATION: In a large bowl combine one cup of the lemon juice and all ingredients except for oil and scallops. Once thoroughly combined, add the scallops and toss to coat. Allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes. Add the canola oil to a sauté pan and turn stove on to medium heat. Once the oil is hot place the scallops and allow to cook and sizzle, browning each side approximately one minute on each side. Once you place the scallops in the pan, do not move them, to properly brown. When scallops have browned on both sides take out of pan, and use the remainder one cup of lemon juice to deglaze the pan and make a thick pan sauce. Drizzle this sauce on top of the scallops. Enjoy!!

Revamping Recipes...

Hey Ppls, So, you all have seen me revamp the traditional samosa to make it more figure friendly. I'm currently working on revamping Pad Thai, however if you would like to see any other recipes revamped, please do let me know! I'd love to help you all out :-)

And Another Question...

Hey Guys, So in case you haven't figured it out, I love to experiment with food. Make new dishes, revamp old favorites to make them more healthier or even try out something completely different ie: my Avocado Smoothie :-) Lately, I've been experimenting a lot with pasta and making sauces. I wanted to know if there were any recipes you guys were looking for anything else, such as Chicken, Tofu, Veal....anything at all. If so, let me know. I may already have recipes that I can post up for you, if not...I'll get experimenting!

Question...

Hi Ppls, Do you guys think it would be helpful if I posted videos of my recipes online? Let me know, if so, this is something that I would try doing for you! Thanks, and I hope you guys had a great day!
