Pita-Seafood Salad Sandwiches
Source of Recipe
Internet
List of Ingredients
1/2 lb scallops or shrimp
1/4 cup olive oil
1 medium onion
1 garlic cloves (or more or less to taste)
1 1/2 cups vegetable (such as eggplant or zucchini)
3/4 cup mushrooms
to taste salt, pepper and spices
1 1/2 cups cooked couscous
pita bread
Recipe
(1) Cut up the vegetables into small (1/2 inch) cubes.
Slice the mushrooms.
(2) If using shrimp, peel and devein the shrimp and
cut into small cubes.
(3) In a small amount of olive oil, sauté the onion
and the optional garlic until the onion is soft
but not quite transparent.
(4) Heat the remaining olive oil in a skillet and add
the vegetable and mushrooms. Saute until the
vegetables are almost soft. Taste and add salt,
pepper and whatever spices strike your fancy (ore-
gano, basil, and red pepper are good).
(5) Add the scallops or shrimp and cook until just
done-about a minute or two. Scallops will turn
opaque and shrimp will turn pink. Do NOT over-
cook.
(6) There should be an excess of oil and fluid. If
not, add more oil and briefly heat. Transfer the
mixture to a bowl. Add the couscous and mix
thoroughly.
(7) Chill several hours or overnight.
(8) Stuff into the pita bread (maybe with some tomato)
and serve.
