Balsamic-Glazed Scallops image

I love scallops! Our local seafood restaurants make amazing scallop dishes. This recipe can hold up to all of them. Buy a frozen bag of scallops from Trader Joe's (if you are so blessed to live by one) and make a night of it. I serve this dish with Jasmine rice. From the Coastal Living Cookbook.
