Cajun Scallops

I seared the scallops in oil separately. Set it aside. Then I added some oil and prepared onion added the already seared scallops and the Cajun seasoning. It came out very well.

The onion/spice mix had fantastic flavor, but I only used about 1/2 onion, which was plenty. I was disappointed the scallops didn't really brown, I think because they released too much water in the pan (and I even dried them off with a papertowel first). The scallops didn't get as flavorful as the onions, so I found myself sopping up the spicy sauce with each bite of scallop. I think this dish could also be really good with shrimp.

I even cooked it with talipia and some spinach as side dish

One word for this recipe - delicious! Tried this dish last night and we really loved the taste. Used 1 lb. scallops but followed the rest of the recipe as stated. This dish packs a little heat, but you can control that by how much hot sauce you use. Served with Buffalo Rice and garlic glazed green beans. YUM!

I made this for my husband - he loved it. Served it over a blanket of herb potatoes.

So easy, yet incredibly tasty. I'll be making this again and again. Got raves from my family.

I put the scallops on a bed of spinach and it was delicious and spicy. I used 1 tbspn of hot sauce but next time will use 2. We like it hot!

VERY tasty! I also added two portabello mushroom caps sliced thin, when I added the onion. I didn't have hot sauce, so substituted tobasco sauce and used only a tiny bit. Served with rice/pea/carrot blend. Very quick and most of the ingredients I had on hand. Will definately make again and again.

Outstanding! Very hot! The spiced caramelized onions are brilliant. We used a seafood hot sauce that resembles a habanero version of cocktail sauce. (If you are in Nags Head NC, visit Tortuga's Lie and buy a bottle of hot sauce after you eat.)

I made these for a dinner party and they were a hit. I would recommend and make again.

Great & easy to make

I only used a third of an onion chopped. Used bay scallops. This was outstanding. I will definitely make again
