scallop spedini and asparagus

[JoyLee]

I am making sauteed scallops done like Caraba's spedino di mare. Anyone have any suggestions on that recipe? I am searching on here, but not finding anything very similar to their recipe. I am also adding sauteed asparagus to it. It's supposed to be topped with a lemon butter of sorts. Possibly a lemon garlic basil butter? Any suggestions would be appreciated!! New to this site~~

Carrabba's Spiedino di Mare

4 scallops, size U-10 to U-20
4 shrimp, size U-16 to U-20
Pinch of Kosher salt
Pinch of white pepper
Splash of olive oil
Seasoned Italian bread crumbs
2 ounces lemon butter
Pinch of parsley, chopped

Lightly season scallops and shrimp with salt and pepper.

Lightly coat with olive oil, then dip in seasoned bread crumbs.

Skewer and grill on both sides. Melt lemon butter and serve with seafood.

Sprinkle chopped parsley on top.






Lemon Butter - you can substitute basil for the parsley

1 stick of butter ; softened to room temperature
1 Tbsp. fresh parsley ; minced
4 Tbsp. lemon Juice ; fresh
2 tsp. lemon zest ; grated


Whip the butter until soft and creamy, then add the other ingredients and incorporate. Decant the butter to a piece of waxed paper and roll up into a 1-1/2 inch diameter roll. Chill or freeze. When ready to use, thaw if frozen and slice little "Coins" and top your fish or veggies.
