Scrumptious! Instead of cooking the way recommended I used some scallops in their shell and cooked over a BBQ grill and prepared the sauce on the side using the wok burner. I poured the sauce into the shells at the end. Very quick and tasty! I used some green peppers which was all I had, so my photo might not look all that pretty but it sure tasted great!

Ahhh, MizzNezz.....!!! This recipe was fabulous. DH is eating more seafood, and is especially fond of scallops. I made this recipe just for him, using 5 medium sea scallops. I used 1Tbsp. butter and 1 Tbsp. olive oil for sautéing. I didn't have regular onions, so substituted green onion. You know, it looked really lovely with the red pepper, and dh said it tasted like a 5* restaurant. The sauce was nice and smooth, and complimented the scallops. Thanks for posting another tried & true recipe. :-)

After DH and I moved away from the farm, and to the city...I haven't done as much cooking and very little canning. But I do come to Zaar and look for new recipes once in a while. I'm still cooking Zaar!!
I like to play at Facebook, with my family and friends. A lot of my Zaar friends are there!! Yay! It's a good way to keep in touch.
We travel more. We're looking at the European trips now. Hope to go in the springtime. I really want to see London, I think I lived there in a past life, I've been obsessed with it since I was 10 years old!!
