Ingredients:   

• 2 tablespoons cooking oil divided
• 3 large garlic cloves minced
• 1 lb medium shrimp raw, peeled and deveined, patted dry
• 1 lb small to medium scallops patted dry
• 1 lb imitation crab meat chopped
• 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning add more to taste – see first note in the notes section below

Instructions:

• Heat a large skillet over medium heat.  Add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil and the pressed or minced garlic.  Saute garlic for about 20-30 seconds.
• Add the peeled, deveined shrimp.  Sautee the shrimp for 3 to 5 minutes, flipping them over half way through.  The shrimp will turn opaque white and pink.  Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
• Add a little more cooking oil and sautee scallops until slighly browned for about 3 – 5 minutes, depending on the size of the scallops.  You may need to increase the heat and allow some liquid to cook out before the scallops begin to brown. Transfer the scallops to the mixing bowl with the shrimp.
• Add the diced crab to the skillet and saute for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.  Transfer the crab to the mixing bowl and stir in 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning. Serve warm.
