Food and Wine Friday!

[Jules]

Ok ya'll. I made this kick ass pasta dish last week.
4 cloves minced garlic
juice from two lemons (zest them too and save the zest)
couple tablespoons olive oil
pinot grigio (don't use Chardonnay-too oaky. Pinot has more citrus)
bay or sea scallops
half cup cream
half cup parmesan cheese
half pound pasta such as linguine
salt and white pepper
green peppercorns (soft) and this is optional as are the.....
sliced strawberries bout a half cup (weird but it works)

while the pasta is cooking saute the garlic, wine, lemon, oil, salt and pepper with the scallops (these cook quickly). Add the cream, peppercorns and cheese and simmer. You can add cream or milk to thin it out or add cheese to thicken. It shouldn't be gloppy.
Toss immediately with the pasta and add the sliced strawberries, top with lemon zest and more cheese.

Very fatty but sooo good.
Serve with the same wine you used in the recipe or a refreshing mineral water, and a nice cooling salad.
