Chef Tom brings a Cajun twist to creamy Alfredo—searing sweet scallops on the Fusion Griddle and tossing bucatini in a silky sauce of roasted garlic oil, butter, Parmigiano and Pecorino. We’ll thin-slice red onion for a quick char, microplane fresh garlic so it melts right in, and use dual-zone griddle control to juggle sauce, scallops, and onions without overcooking. Big flavor, buttery texture, and that perfect Cajun kick.
