Sautéed Scallops
"I love any kind of seafood but DH just doesn't seem to like it. He will however, eat scallops for some reason. He loves it when I make these and serve it with a good steak and a baked potato. This is his special meal I make! They are really easy but be careful not to overcook them."

So easy and tasty. I used light butter and fresh basil -- will add garlic next time as suggested by other reviewer. Served with pasta, roasted red peppers and sauteed mushrooms. Tomatoes would be a nice addition. I know I'll use this one many times! -
Delicious. I added a pinch of salt and pepper, plus a little garlic. Quick and easy to prepare, with a nice delicate flavor that does not over power the scallops. Thanks!

I am happily married to my best friend and we just bought our first house! No kids but we have 2 little dogs that we think the world of. I was born in California and although I have been on the East Coast for most of my life I am still displaced! I love the beach and hate the cold! In our free time we love to go to the beach or the mountains and hike or intertube down the lazy Shenendoah River. It is so beautiful there! I have loved to cook all of my life and will read cookbooks like they are novels!
