Excellent seafood flavor - scallops, shrimp, and crab with just the right amount of creamy sauce. I can never have just one serving of this. I think the clam juice is what gives the sauce such a good flavor. I use precooked shrimp so I don't have to cook them with the scallops at all. I always add extra Parmesan cheese (the real shredded kind, not the powdery grated kind) to the sauce and on top. You can use either white pepper or black pepper.
