INSTRUCTIONS
GARNISH
Saute garlic in butter and sesame oil over medium heat until it just starts
to become translucent, about 2 minutes. Add scallop slices and saute,
stirring or shaking pan frequently until scallops become white and opaque -
about 2-3 minutes. Remove scallops and set aside.
Cook fettucine about 2 minutes.
Meanwhile, using the same pan as for scallops, turn heat to high and add
wine and lemon juice. Cook until liquid reduces by about half. Stir in
pear, cream, lemon verbena and ginger juice. Cook briefly to thicken sauce
slightly and blend flavors. Stir in scallops and heat through. Remove lemon
verbena and adjust seasonings.
Pour sauce over fettucine and toss gently, coating pasta evenly and keeping
scallops and pears on top. Serve hot.
NOTES : Ginger root can be juiced with a garlic press after being grated. A
piece 1" X 2" yields approximately 1 tablespoon.
