I had great hopes for this recipe after reading the reviews and seeing how simple it was to prepare. Alas, the texture was not to our liking. It kind of reminded me of a grainy cheesecake. I'm in search of a creamy, light key lime pie and this wasn't it.

I mixed cracker crumbs, fresh minced garlic cloves, black pepper & cayenne in a plastic bag. Threw scallops in the bag & pressed mixture to scallops. Used 2 T. butter instead of 1/2 cup and a mixture of lemon & lime juices with the white wine. Baked for 15 min then broiled for 2 min. Served with jasmine rice & steamed asparagus. EXCELLENT! I'm thinking about trying this same crumb mixture on fish. Definitely company quality. No kids were here to eat it so I wasn't sure how to rate for kid friendly. Dinah, thank you!

My mom made this a year ago so I followed suit. I now have my 2nd pot of it on the stove. Although the ingredients appear simple, the taste is superb! If you like a thicker consistency, try using a potato masher to mash some of the soup to thicken. I also add a pinch of sugar, salt & pepper to taste and a dash of liquid smoke. Enjoy!
