This recipe was a disaster. The scallops were burned and the sauce was inedible.

I would not recommend this recipe. The scallops were overcooked and the sauce was too salty.

This recipe was a waste of time. The scallops were tough and the sauce was bland.

I'm not a fan of the sauce. I think next time I will try a different recipe.

The scallops were a little bland. I think next time I will add some more seasoning to the sauce.

I followed the recipe exactly and the scallops were overcooked. I think next time I will cook them for a shorter amount of time.

This recipe was easy to follow and the scallops turned out great! I used frozen scallops and they still turned out perfectly. The sauce was also delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

I'm not a big fan of scallops, but I decided to try this recipe anyway. I was pleasantly surprised! The scallops were cooked perfectly and the sauce was delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

I tried this recipe last night and it was a hit! The scallops were cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful. I served them over rice and it was a delicious meal.
