My husband and I like to eat seafood at least once a week. Oranges and lemon juice give scallops a refreshing burst of flavor.

Ingredients

• 1 medium green or sweet red pepper, julienned
• 4 green onions, chopped
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 pound sea scallops
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 1/2 teaspoon grated lime zest
• 4 medium navel oranges, peeled and sectioned
• 2 teaspoons minced fresh cilantro
• hot cooked rice or pasta

Directions

1. In a large skillet, saute the pepper, onions and garlic in oil for 1 minute. Add scallops, salt and pepper flakes; cook for 4 minutes. Add lime juice and zest; cook for 1 minute. Reduce heat. Add orange sections and cilantro; cook 2 minutes longer or until scallops are opaque. Serve with rice or pasta.
