I used 2 navel oranges instead of 4 and I still thought it was too sweet. Overall it was nothing special and next time I would make scallops scampi instead.

as suggested, used less oranges. Lots of flavor. Makes a nice sauce. Keep red peppers slightly crunchy for good texture.

I also added only two oranges and it was the perfect amount. This is a great recipe, but next time I am going to try it with blood oranges and some ruby red grapefruit!!

Tasty but could be a bit spicier.

I used green pepper instead of red and that worked fine. I didn't have oranges but I added a few tablespoons of tequilla about half way through the cooking of the scallops. Cilantro gave it great flavor with the lime.

A local store that specializes in fresh seafood was having a sale and they had HUGE scallops, so I went on a search for a great scallop recipe and I FOUND IT!!!! Wow-really flavorful, I added about a 1/4 cup of Yellow Tail Reisling and it was just perfect. My husband is from Florida and he couldn't stop raving about it. I'm going to try shrimp next time.

I really enjoyed this! I made this only for me, so I quartered the recipe. I didn't include any garlic, but instead sprinkled some paprika over the scallops when I first put them in the pan. I also included shrimp (with a 1:1 ratio to the scallops), adding them in right before putting in the orange slices. My only complaint is that there didn't seem to be enough of a sauce created with the ingredients. But this had great flavor and was easy to make! I also made sure to measure and chop everything up before hand so I could just throw the items into the pan right on time.

My husband and I thought this was delicious. The kids wouldn't touch it though, even my brave one. I didn't have green onions or a red pepper so used some white onion and a green pepper. I only used 2 oranges. Very good flavor.

Great quick and easy recipe. I agree with other reviews that you can reduce the number of oranges. I used 2 small oranges and found it plenty. Boyfriend loved it!
