Steps:
- If bay scallops are used, leave them whole. If sea scallops are used, cut them into quarters.
- Cut the broccoli into florets. Peel the stems and cut each lengthwise into quarters. There should be about 4 cups of flowerets and stems. Drop the broccoli into boiling salted water and when the water returns to the boil cook exactly 1 minute. Drain.
- Cut away the outer thick portion of the tomatoes and cut the pieces into lengthwise strips, each about 1/4-inch thick. There should be about 2 cups.
- Chop the inner portion of the tomatoes with their seeds. There should be about 3/4 cup.
- Cut the mushrooms into thin slices. There should be about 3 cups.
- Heat the water to make it ready for the linguine when it is added.
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet and add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring, about 3 minutes. Add the shallots and stir.
- Add the chopped inner portion of tomatoes, the red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, about 1 minute and add the cream. Bring to the boil and add the scallops. Cook 30 seconds and add the parboiled broccoli pieces. Add the tomato strips and stir.
- Meanwhile, when the water is boiling, add the linguine. If fresh pasta is used, it will require about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes of cooking time. If dried pasta is used, cook it to the desired degree of doneness, about 7 to 9 minutes.
- Drain the pasta and return it to the kettle in which it cooked. Pour the scallop and broccoli sauce over the pasta. Add the butter and basil and blend gently but well. Serve immediately.

SCAMPI-STYLE SCALLOPS OVER LINGUINE
I love scallops, particularly bay scallops. This is a quick and easy way I've found to prepare them. It has become a regular at my house. If you prefer a thicker sauce, make a slurry out of a teaspoon water mixed with a teaspoon of cornstarch and stir into the boiling liquid to tighten it up. Serve with crusty bread for an easy weeknight meal.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 350°. Toast the pine nuts in the oven until golden brown, about 8 minutes. In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the linguine until just done, about 12 minutes. Drain the pasta. Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large nonstick frying pan over moderately high heat until very hot. Season the scallops with 1/8 teaspoon salt. Put the scallops in the pan and sear until brown on the bottom, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn and sear until brown on the other side, 1 to 2 minutes longer. Remove the scallops and cut them into quarters. In the same pan, heat the remaining 5 tablespoons oil over moderate heat. Add the tomatoes, garlic, 2 tablespoons of the parsley, the red-pepper flakes, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Toss with the pasta, scallops, pine nuts, and the remaining 4 tablespoons of parsley.
Tips:
- Choose High-Quality Ingredients: Select fresh, plump scallops, flavorful sun-dried tomatoes, and a robust white wine for the best results.
- Properly Sear the Scallops: Sear the scallops in a hot pan with a little oil until they get a golden crust. This will help preserve their natural juices and flavor.
- Use a Flavorful White Wine: A good quality dry white wine like Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio will enhance the flavors of the dish.
- Add Sun-Dried Tomatoes for a Tangy Twist: Sun-dried tomatoes add a sweet and tangy flavor to the dish that complements the scallops well.
- Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs like basil, parsley, and thyme add a vibrant flavor and aroma.
- Don't Overcook the Scallops: Scallops cook quickly, so be careful not to overcook them. They should be cooked until they are just opaque in the center.
- Garnish with Fresh Herbs and Lemon Zest: Garnish the dish with fresh herbs and lemon zest for a colorful and flavorful finishing touch.
