Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/2 lb fresh or frozen sea scallops
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1 can 14 1/2 oz can no-salt-added diced tomatoes
2 tsp olive oil
1/2 cup dry red wine
2 clove garlic minced
1/2 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup kalamata olives pitted and quartered
6 oz dried whole grain or multigrain fettuccine cooked according to p
1 tbsp thinly sliced fresh basil

Directions:

Thaw scallops, if frozen. Rinse scallops; pat dry with paper towels. Sprinkle scallops with the pepper; set aside. Set aside half of the diced tomatoes. In a blender or food processor, combine the remaining diced tomatoes and the juice from the can. Cover and blend or process until smooth; set aside.
Preheat a very large skillet over medium-high heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Add oil to hot skillet; swirl to lightly coat skillet. Add scallops to hot skillet; cook about 4 minutes or until golden brown and opaque, turning once. Transfer scallops to a warm platter; cover and keep warm.
For sauce: 3. Add wine and garlic to skillet, stirring to scrape up any browned bits from bottom of skillet. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes or until wine mixture is reduced by one-third. Add the reserved diced tomatoes, the pureed tomato mixture, and the broth. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, for 4 to 5 minutes or until sauce begins to thicken slightly.
Remove from heat; stir in olives. Divide hot cooked fettuccine among four shallow pasta bowls. Spoon sauce over fettuccine; toss to combine. Arrange scallops on top of fettuccine mixture. Sprinkle with basil. Serve immediately.
Makes 4 servings (3/4 cup pasta, 3 or 4 scallops, and about 1/3 cup sauce per serving)
