Citrus Scallops
My husband and I like to eat seafood at least once a week. Oranges and lemon juice give scallops a refreshing burst of flavor. —Cheri Hawthorne, North Canton, Ohio

Reviews
This was delicious. The only thing heavy about it was the pasta and we opted for angel hair. I would recommend prepping all ingredients beforehand, as the cooking times per the directions are spot on. Pleasantly spicy! My husband says he'd "pay for this at a restaurant!" so we will definitely prepare this again. Thank you!
