Ingredients:

Serving

12 oz dried penne pasta
1 onion (about 6 oz.), peeled and diced
3 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp grated lemon peel
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 tbsp butter
1 lb scallops (about 1 1/2 in. wide), rinsed
1/3 cup chopped fresh basil
salt and pepper

Directions:

In a 5- to 6-quart pan over high heat, bring about 4 quarts water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender to bite, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain.
Meanwhile, in a 10- to 12-inch frying pan (with sides at least 2 in. tall) over medium heat, stir onion and garlic in olive oil until limp, 3 to 5 minutes.
Add lemon peel, lemon juice, butter, and scallops to pan with onions. Bring to a simmer and cook until scallops are opaque but still moist-looking in the center (cut to test), about 6 minutes.
Add pasta and basil to scallop mixture and stir until heated through. Add salt and pepper to taste. Pour into a wide, shallow bowl to serve.
