Ingredients List
- 1/2 lb Green beans
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 4 tb Olive oil
- 2 tb Minced garlic
- 3 c Ripe tomatoes, peeled, cubed
- 2 tb Tomato paste
- 1 ts Dried marjoram
- 1/4 c Coarsely chopped fresh basil
- 1/2 ts Oregano
- 1/4 ts Red pepper flakes
- 3/4 lb Bow-tie pasta
- 1 lb Bay or sea scallops*
Directions
*Note: If using large sea scallops, cut them in half.
Trim and cut green beans into 1-1/4-inch lengths. Drop them into salted
boiling water and cook them for 7 minutes or until slightly crisp and
tender. Drain immediately and reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid.
Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat and
add 1 tablespoon of the garlic. Cook briefly without letting it brown. Add
tomatoes, tomato paste, marjoram, basil, oregano, red pepper flakes, salt
and pepper. Cook, stirring well, for about 5 minutes. Set aside.
Bring 3 quarts salted water to a boil. Add pasta, bring to a boil and
cook, stirring, for about 12 minutes or according to package instructions.
The pasta should be al dente.
Meanwhile, heat the 2 remaining tablespoons of olive oil in a large
saucepan over medium-high heat. Add scallops, remaining garlic and salt and
pepper to taste. Cook, stirring, for about 1 minute, then add the tomato
sauce, green beans and reserved liquid to the pan. Bring to a boil, then
lower the heat to a simmer. Drain pasta and add it to the tomato-scallop
mixture. Serve immediately with the remaining basil. Source: Pierre
