Easy Shrimp and Scallop in White Wine Sauce image

I finally managed to get Aunt Barb to divulge her recipe! Serve with rice or a nice crusty bread to dip in the tasty sauce. PLEASE NOTE: When adding chicken base, it must be low salt or salt free (depending on your own tastes)...or recipe will be very salty.
