Sea Scallops Sauteed With Mushrooms & Pasta image

My husband brought home these huge Maine sea scallops and I made another experiment which turned out really good. It was very light and tasty and simple to make. I used baby portobello mushrooms & bowtie pasta. The hubby would like to see this done with angel hair pasta next time.
