Enjoy the delightful tastes of the sea and garden with a healthy twist tonight!

1

Start by preparing all your vegetables. Wash the zucchini, bell pepper, and carrot. Cut the zucchini into half-moons, slice the bell pepper into strips, and julienne the carrot.

2

Next, mince the garlic cloves and set aside.

3

In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

4

Add the shrimp and scallops to the skillet. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the seafood is cooked through and opaque, stirring occasionally.

5

Once the seafood is cooked, add the zucchini, bell pepper, and carrot to the skillet. Sauté all ingredients together for an additional 5-6 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender yet crisp.

6

While sautéing the vegetables, squeeze the juice of one lemon over the medley, mixing well to combine the flavors.

7

Remove the skillet from heat and let it rest for a minute before serving. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully.

• Add a spicy kick by incorporating sliced jalapeños or a pinch of red pepper flakes during cooking.
• Experiment with different seafood like mussels or crab for a unique twist.
• Finish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs such as parsley or basil for added flavor and freshness.

• Make sure to not overcook the seafood; it becomes tough if cooked too long.
• Try to use seasonal vegetables for the best flavor and freshness.
• You can also add a splash of white wine after the garlic for an extra depth of flavor.
