Tonight I made scallops in herb butter and pan toasted asparagus for dinner. The recipe for the scallops is basically this: http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/241746

However, they had no tarragon at the store, so I just used parsley, since it’s inoffensive.

Now, the aspragus I would normally cook under the broiler for about 5-7 minutes (coated in olive oil) then sprinkle with kosher salt. Well, still no oven, so I pan toasted them in a cast iron skilled for about 7 minutes, then sprinkled on the salt.

Here is my plate:

Both stega and I enjoyed it. And she did most of the dishes!
