Sicilian Scallop Skewers with Asti-Spumanti Glaze

Istruzioni

1. 1

   Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.

2. 2

   Pat the sea scallops dry with paper towels. In a bowl, toss the scallops with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

3. 3

   Thread the scallops, red bell pepper chunks, yellow bell pepper chunks, and red onion wedges alternately onto skewers.

4. 4

   In a small saucepan, combine the Asti Spumanti sparkling wine, honey, and lemon juice. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and set aside.

5. 5

   Brush the vegetable and scallop skewers with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

6. 6

   Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, turning once, until the scallops are opaque and lightly charred and the vegetables are tender.

7. 7

   During the last minute of grilling, brush the skewers generously with the Asti-Spumanti glaze.

8. 8

   Remove the skewers from the grill and drizzle with any remaining glaze. Serve immediately.
