*Preparation Method:* [*Sautéed*](https://news.freshaig.com/sauteing-seafood/) *in a light garlic and white wine sauce to highlight the natural sweetness of the scallops.*

**Serves:** 4

## Ingredients

- 1 lb fresh Bay Scallops (patted completely dry)
- 8 oz dried fettuccine pasta
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup dry white wine
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Lemon wedges for serving

## Instructions

1. Cook the fettuccine in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente, then drain and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped walnuts and toast until fragrant, about 3 minutes, then remove from the pan and set aside.
3. In the same skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the [bay scallops](https://news.freshaig.com/tag/bay-scallops/) in a single layer and sear for 1-2 minutes per side until they have a natural golden crust and are opaque throughout. Remove and set aside.
4. Reduce the heat to medium, add the minced garlic to the skillet, and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
5. Pour in the white wine to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits from the scallops, and simmer for 2 minutes to slightly reduce the sauce.
6. Toss the cooked fettuccine, seared scallops, and toasted walnuts together in the skillet until well coated in the sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
7. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges.
