At this point, add chicken stock and cream and scallops and stir until all of the ingredients are well blended. Add chopped tomatoes, dried oregano and fresh time. Add half of the fresh basil and set the othe half to the side. Stir the sauce, cover the skillet and reduce heat to simmer for 15 minutes.

Cover and cook on medium heat for 12-15 minutes. Uncover and stir every 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and pour on top of spaghetti in a large pasta platter or individual plates. Combine the other half of the basil with parsley and sprinkle on top of the sauce with fresh Parmesan cheese.
