Sea scallops and asparagus

A couple of nights ago I was requested by my house hold to make sea scallops and asparagus. This is a very simple dish. You chop up 1 shallot onion and saute it in butter then you add sliced mushrooms then add the asparagus. Make sure you blanch/ Ar boil the asparagus before you sauté them. At the very end add about 2 teaspoons of cooking sherry let it sauté for about a minute then turn off the heat and let it sit,until the scallops are done. In another frying pan, put about 1 tablespoon of olive oil in the pan. Let it get hot. It not smoking. You want to create a nice crust on your scallop. Season your scallops with just salt and pepper. Make sure each side of the scallop has a nice crust. About 2 minutes. Plate the vegetables and then the scallops on top. A nice simple yummy meal. I even got my 2year old to eat them. Happy Eating
