This quick-cooking scallop dish can be on the table in just 20 minutes. Packed with vegetables, protein and a flavorful sauce, it makes a great weeknight main for two. Petite carrots are harvested before they reach full maturity, making them thin and quick cooking. Snatch some up from the farmers' market early in the season.

8 ounces dry sea scallops, tough side muscle removed
Pinch of ground pepper
8 ounces asparagus (1/2 bunch), trimmed
6 ounces petite carrots, trimmed or baby carrots, halved lengthwise
1 medium shallot, minced
5 pitted Castelvetrano olives, coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon capers, rinsed and chopped
