Good to know
Add 2 cherry tomatoes to the sauce for additional acidity- add even a small de-seeded chili with your red pepper. Just be careful with the heat. You want to taste the scallops. This sauce is very good if you prepare in advance and just heat- up to 3-4 hours is fine. The flavors improve. You can serve on cooked rice as a dinner. I quickly have more than enough of scallops, so I prefer to eat them as a starter, but it works as a main course- just add a green salad and the rice.
