How To Make bay scallops scampi
-
1- Place 2/3 of the scampi butter in a large saute pan over high heat and melt.
-
2- Add in bay scallops and cook for about 1 minute, moving them around in the pan.
-
3- Sizzle with the white wine and cook for just another minute more.
-
4- Remove from heat and stir in the remaining scampi butter, Feta cheese, and avocado chunks.
-
5- Serve over hot spaghetti squash and garnish with fresh arugula.
-
6- Cut 1 large Spaghetti Squash in half the long ways.
-
7- Remove seeds with a spoon.
-
8- Place the 2 halves of squash, cut side down, on a sheet pan and add enough warm water to fill up about ½ inch on sides.
-
9- Bake at 350 degrees for about 1 hour or until skin feels soft.
-
10- Immediately remove from oven and flip the squash over, being careful because they will be hot, but you don’t want the squash to absorb the water on pan.
-
11- Gently use a fork to separate the strands of spaghetti squash
