7 July - linguine with queen scallops and peas

I'd started off today with the idea of making squid linguine that I'd spotted flicking through a Jamie Oliver book the other night. But neither the fish man nor the supermarket had any squid, so I ended up doing something similar with some small queen scallops instead. I mixed the scallops with some olive oil, garlic, chilli, lemon juice and chopped parsley and left them to marinate for a bit. I fried a bit of pancetta, then added the scallops and their marinade. Then in went a couple of handfuls of fresh peas and a glass of white wine to bubble away for a few minutes. Mixed together with some linguine, it worked quite well.
