Bay Scallop Primavera - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 lb bay scallop
1 medium sweet onion, coarsely chopped
1/2 green bell pepper, coarsely chopped
1/2 red bell pepper, coarsely chopped
1 cup broccoli floret, coarsely chopped
2 cloves finely chopped garlic
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon italian seasoning mix
1 lb pasta (I use Gemelli, it really picks up the sauce!)
boiling water, for the pasta

Preparation

In a large pan, heat half the oil.
Add the onions and saute until just translucent but still crisp.
Add the peppers, broccoli and garlic, cover and simmer for about three minutes.
Remove the mixture from the heat, stir in the Italian Seasoning and set aside.
Stir the pasta into the boiling water.
When the pasta has been on for about five minutes, return the vegetables to the heat, stir in the scallops and the remaining oil, cover and simmer on low until the pasta is done.
Drain the cooked pasta and put it in a large pasta bowl.
Check that the scallops are cooked through and stir the mixture with the pasta, tossing well.
A great side for this is a good garlic bread---.
