Bay Scallop and shrimp in lemon butter sauce

Craving a quick decent dish after a long day of work? Try this recipe! You will only need a hand full of ingredients which you may already have! If you don't have shrimps or scallops, substitute them with any seafood you like! I would say catfish fillets would work extremely well too. 





Preparation time: 8 mins

Ingredients:
1/2 cup of bay scallop
1/2 cup of shrimp
2 tbsp of mince garlic
1/2 lemon
2 tbsp of white wine
a few chopped parsley
a few drops of olive oil, or vegetable oil
1 tbsp of butter, salted or unsalted
according to taste salt and pepper
according to taste grated Parmesan cheese

1. In a pan, add a few drops of olive oil, put in the mince garlic, and heat the pan with medium heat
2. Once the garlic started to sizzle, put in bay scallop and shrimp, try to lay them in single layer. Wait for 2-3 minutes until the side started to turn slightly golden.
3. Splash in white wine.
4. Flip the scallop and shrimp, season them with salt and pepper, add parsley. 
5. Squeeze in lemon juice. Stir well until the sauce is warmed up. Turn off the heat.
6. Stir in the butter until incorporated. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese. Assemble the dish.
7. Enjoy:)

Little tips:
1. Keep an eye on the seafood since they are very easy to cook through. Do not over cook.
2. This dish will finish with a very nice and refreshing sauce. Serve it with pasta, rice, bread, or even mashed potatos!
