Superb! We enjoyed this so much. I only had whole wheat pasta and wondered if it would be to heavy for the delicate flavours of the sauce... it was just lovely. I have added this to our list of favourites. Thanks!

I love the taste of scallops, so the main thing I look for in a scallop recipe is a sauce that doesn't overpower their subtle flavor. This sauce was a perfect complement to the scallops and pasta.

This recipe is restraunt gormet! The scallops with dijon and lemon were delectable. Flavor wise, it was light, yet rich. Served over angel hair pasta, and garnished with fresh chives from my garden, made a lovely presentation! Thanks, Kasha for sharing this wonderful recipe. I can definately recommend it.

This was extremely good and I love scallops. I used fresh scallops, complete with their coral roes and champagne instead of white wine as I had that to hand. Very quick to make. I seared the scallops in a little butter until they were opaque and then removed them and made the sauce - then added them at the end just to heat through. Thanks for posting this one Kim.
