Pan-Seared Scallops on Linguine With Tomato-Cream Sauce Recipe #154167
A touch of cream gives this slightly tangy sauce a silky-smooth finish. Be sure to serve this dish with yummy-crust hot bread so you can sop up every drop of sauce. Found this in Cooking Light, January of 2003 but have not tried it yet.
