in milk to marinate. This marinade can also be done over a period
of the day. Clean and cut mushrooms and asparagus. Mince/crush
garlic. Sautee' mushrooms and steam asparagus and put in large
bowl. This will be your serving dish, so make sure it will hold
all ingredients. Keep warm in oven heated to about 75șC In a
frypan, sautee' milk-marinated abalone steaks in butter, oil and
dill mixture. As the abalone cooks, squeeze lime over. Cook until
you can gently cut with a fork. Start cooking linguine. Cut cooked
abalone steaks into bite size pieces and add with garlic, capers,
parmesan cheese and sun-dried tomatoes to mushrooms and asparagus.
When linguine is cooked al dente, drain. Coat pasta with oil/dill
mixture before turning the ingredients into the bowl. Optional- do
a final generous squeeze of lime over entire mixture.
