it tasted real good but---- i used a lb of scallops, 1 stick butter, and the rest of the ingreds- cooked it at 4oo- there's alot of sauce left which would probably be great served over pasta, unfortunately i already made a rice dish etc to serve with these- next time i will cut the butter down to 2 tbsp--
