This recipe was a disaster! The scallops were tough and the sauce was bland. I won't be making this dish again.

The scallops were a bit overcooked, but the sauce was delicious. I'll try again and cook the scallops for a shorter amount of time.

I've made this dish several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The scallops are always perfectly cooked and the sauce is amazing. I usually serve it with steamed broccoli and jasmine rice.
