Delicious!! The flavors of the butter, wine, green onions and fresh ginger melt together! I will admit I was completely freaked out with the thought of cooking scallops. Never done it before and was worried I’d over cook them and end up with little rubber tires in a great sauce. I’m definitely glad I took the advice of other reviewers and seared the scallops on each side for 1 minute in a separate pan with a little extra virgin olive oil before mixing it into the sauce for an additional minute. I don’t think the minute alone in the sauce as stated above would have cooked the scallops enough. So crazy how things turn out when I read and follow directions!! What a concept! 😀 And the best part about this recipe was how easy it was to make! I know, shocked again about how something so easy can be so yummy!
