Cornzucchini Scallop Recipes

Steps:

• In a large pot with boiling salted water cook pasta until al dente. Drain.
• Meanwhile, in a large skillet heat oil, add garlic and cook until tender. Add the zucchini, salt, red pepper flakes, dried basil (if using) and saute for 10 minutes. Add chopped tomatoes, bay scallops, and fresh basil (if using) and simmer for 5 minutes, or until scallops are opaque.
• Pour sauce over cooked pasta and serve with grated Parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• Mix corn and flour together and place 1 cup in a well greased 1 1/2 quart casserole Place zucchini slices on top of corn.
• Place onion on top of zucchini.
• Dot with butter and sprinkle with salt.
• Place remaining cup of corn on top.
• Mix cottage cheese and egg together, pour over corn.
• Sprinkle with bread crumbs.
• Bake@ 350 degrees for 45 minutes.

Steps:

• Cut kernels from corncobs and place in a medium bowl. Using the back of a chef's knife, scrape milk from cobs into the bowl; discard cobs.
• Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a medium saucepan over medium. Cook chorizo, stirring occasionally, until it starts to get crisp, about 2 minutes. Carefully pour chorizo oil into a small bowl (use a slotted spoon to hold back chorizo); set chorizo oil aside. Return chorizo pan to medium heat and add scallions, garlic, chile, 1 Tbsp. olive oil, and 3/4 tsp. salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are softened but not browned, about 2 minutes. Add corn kernels and cook, stirring occasionally, until bright yellow and softened, 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let corn mixture cool in pan 5 minutes. Gently mix in buttermilk and cilantro. Taste and season with more salt if needed.
• Season scallops generously with salt. Heat reserved chorizo oil and remaining 1 Tbsp. olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high until just beginning to smoke. Cook scallops on one side, reducing heat if they are taking on too much color and moving around in pan for even browning, until a golden brown crust forms on the bottom, about 3 minutes.
• Reduce heat to medium-low and turn scallops over. Add butter to skillet and, using a spoon, baste scallops with butter 30 seconds. Transfer scallops to a plate. Squeeze halved lime over.
• Divide corn mixture among plates and arrange scallops on top. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing over.

Steps:

• 1. Prepare the vegetable mixture. Reserve in the pan off heat. Then, season the scallops with salt and pepper. Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook the scallops 1 to 2 minutes per side or until golden on the outside and opaque but still moist inside. 2. Reheat the vegetables and spoon evenly in the center of 4 serving plates. Place a portion of scallops on top of the vegetables on each plate. Garnish with lime wedges. Serve at once.From "1,000 Mexican Recipes." Copyright 2001 by Marge Poore. Used with permission of the publisher, Wiley Publishing, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
