Tips
The spice mix can be used as desired and will keep for a while.
If you want to make this recipe with scallops
simply cook them for 2 minutes on each side. If they are overcooked
they can be a little tough.
Complete this dish with Zatarain's Caribbean rice on the side. Add 1/2 red bell pepper and 1/4 cup of fresh pineapple to the rice.
