This is an easy, quick, and melt-in-your mouth, scallop recipe! I had made scallops in the past and seemed to either over cook them or add way too much seasoning.I found that scallops, left to a minimum, are the best way to go. They are very delicate, yet powerful. I came up with this recipe on my own and have used it ever since.
Enjoy!!
