Legal Seafood Style Scallops image

Whenever we get back to Mass., we make a beeline for a Legal Seafood Restaurant. After loosing this recipe I finally found it again in a pile of newspaper clippings. I had tried to recreate it several times but was always missing the buttermilk. This is our favorite way to eat scallops.
