Sea Scallops in Massachusetts

I hate it when I forget passwords and sign ins...it is exasperating.

I haven't been cooking as much...I have been traveling working and going about a hundred miles an hour.

The last new thing I cooked was ever so simple. Sea Scallops .

I was in Massachusetts visiting my sister and she had a meat store not too far away from her house. The scallops were about the size of my fist. First things first, Pat down the scallops with a paper towel to remove some of the excess water.

In a hot skillet melt butter and add a bit of EVOO, how much you ask...that depends on how many scallops you are cooking. Do not let the butter burn. Add chopped shallots and leeks to the pan at the same time you add the scallops. Turn down the heat and let them steam. Add a bit of cream towards the end. Salt and pepper to taste.

So easy, I didn't really measure what I used of anything, but it was heaven in my mouth.
