    Nice work sir. I see you didn't make it back to town this week.

    Great cook -anything with Sriracha is a winner.  But I'm a bit confused-you cooked the garlic bread from scratch in the foil pouch -true doc-worthy genius  ;)

    Since I'm here- any rough recipe for the Sriracha sauce??

    I abhor questions!  For you Cap, it's as follows:
    Sauteed 1/3C mushrooms with 1.5T scallions in 1T butter. Added 1 T AP flour and stir the roux. Then added 1C half & half gradually stirring constantly. When thickened, stir in 1  T white wine, 1T Sriracha, pinch of salt, pinch of dried mustard. Add pasta water as needed to sauce. Add egged seafood to sauce. Add cooked pasta of choice. Enjoy

    @bgebrent - thanks for the recipe- next time I will spin the question into something not quite so offensive  ;)  BTW- you are pushing my envelope with the above.

  • That looks very, very good, but Sriracha gives me terrible heartburn. I would still eat it though.

    @lousubcap, I have a ridiculous garlic bread recipe if you want.

    Ya but I would doubt that it can be done in foil with the simplicity you would have led us to believe had I been thinking about asking a question. ;)
    No doubt that was a warming exercise- just having a little fun on Tuesday.

    No chance I could skill-set your recipe.

    I'd love the garlic bread recipe - that's a staple in this house.

    Looks and sounds like a Momma Slapper.  Just with I could smell it.
    The problem with a problem is that you don't know it's a problem until it's a problem, and that is a big problem.

    I abhor questions!  For you Cap, it's as follows:
    Sauteed 1/3C mushrooms with 1.5T scallions in 1T butter. Added 1 T AP flour and stir the roux. Then added 1C half & half gradually stirring constantly. When thickened, stir in 1  T white wine, 1T Sriracha, pinch of salt, pinch of dried mustard. Add pasta water as needed to sauce. Add egged seafood to sauce. Add cooked pasta of choice. Enjoy
    I really need to up my sauce game. Correction, I really need to start making sauces...They can be a game changer and yours looks great.
    Thank you,

    That looks great @bgebrent , thanks for the share!

    Only thing I'd do differently (not that you asked, but this is the internet and you get our opinions like it or not! ;) )...   anyway, you had such a beautiful sear on those scallops, I think I would have made the sauce seperately, tossed with the pasta, and just perched those scallops up top.  Beautiful.  And THEN you can charge $39 for the entree.   :lol:

    If you think you'd miss the scallop taste in the sauce, maybe bring that CI pan inside after the sear and use it for the sauce.  ?   What do I know, I'd eat it no matter how you served it...put it in a blender.  I'm there!
