SCAMPI STYLE STEAK & SCALLOPS WITH ROASTED ASPARAGUS

Scampi-fashion Steak & Scallops with Roasted Asparagus is an excellent dish and takes best 30 minutes in the kitchen to prepare. 

Tenderloin steak seared in butter and completed with scallops in diffused accents of lemon zest, white wine, garlic, and clean basil is surf-n-turf heaven.

The key's satisfactory elements, so pick out clean lemon and herbs, massive scallops, and tenderloin steaks—pork tenderloin (the broader end of the loin) or filet mignon (the small, forward give up of the loin) is an appropriate cut for its tenderness and ease of preparation.

Of course, this recipe works simply as nicely with jumbo shrimp if sea scallops aren't available.

(At this point, begin the sauce in any other small, non-reactive skillet or huge sauce pan as defined in step 2.)
2. turn the steaks on quit and rotate to brown the perimeters (this may take about 3 minutes), then flip over to brown the final aspect for four to 5 mins. when turning the steak to brown the closing side, add scallops to the skillet to brown at the same time, about 2 mins on every facet.
