Hello Dear Followers,
Happy Taco Tuesday! This week we made a rather easy dish that was both healthy and delicious. We made scallop tacos in a green herb salsa.
The dish had very little ingredients and offered a unique blend of tastes and flavors we would have not thought to put together. The green herb salsa certainly had a spicy kick too!
We got the recipe from SkinnyTaste.com and it made for a great summer dish.
Here is the recipe:
Time to make: 30 minutes – 1 hour
Ingredients:
2-4 Corn Tortillas
16 scallops (about 1 pound)
2-3 Jalapenos, cut with seeds removed( We used poblano peppers, also works here)
Parsley (leaves only)
Cilantro (leaves only)
2 cloves of garlic
1 cucumber
2-3 avocados
Salt
Pepper
2 Tbsp of olive oil
1-2 tbsp water
Butter – melted
Instructions
Toast jalapenos with garlic in a dry frying pan in skillet until golden. Remove from heat and peel garlic and seed the peppers. Set aside.
Wash parsley and cilantro using only leaves before placing in blender.
Place parsley, cilantro, toasted jalapenos and garlic with olive oil and water in blender. Add salt and pepper if desired.
Once that is done, cut up the avocado and cucumber in chunks and place and bowl. Pour the salsa over it.
Bake tortillas in oven at 350 degrees. Melt butter and spread on tortillas and wrap and foil before putting it in the oven.
For the scallops, wash and pat dry. Follow this by sprinkling salt and pepper on top before frying it in the pan.
Fry the scallops 2 minutes on each side.
Once tortilla is out the oven, put the green herb salsa and top it with two scallops. Enjoy!
Until next week! Be sure to follow us on Instagram and Facebook @TuesdayNightSuppers!
