So good! I've never cooked with scallops before but it was pretty easy! I took the advice of some others and pan-fried/seared the scallops in butter. I also added some minced garlic. After the scallops cooked, I took them out of the pan and semi-cleaned the pan. I added the pasta and pesto sauce to the pan and stirred it around w/ a little bit of salt. Lastly I plated the pasta, added the scallops, and topped with some chopped tomato. Very simple and delicious recipe!

I didn't flour the scallops. Just pan seared them in butter. I used a little bit more pesto than called for and added a little bit of olive oil to add some moisture. Will definitely make it again.

Pretty quick recipe & tweaked it alittle. Didn't flour the scallops, just pan seared them with butter w/ salt/black pepper to flavor while the pasta was cooking. Since I noticed others mentioned about the dryness. The pesto sauce that I bought from a jar, ended up using more than the recipe measured. Also added minced garlic heated up olive oil on a pan poured over the pesto sauce & pasta to give alittle more kick.

This was delicious! Because it was a little dry, I added olive oil and it came out great!

Pretty good! I only had 1/2 lb of scallops, so I added shrimp too and sauteed them in olive oil instead of butter. I also had leftover homemade pesto. Hubby loved it.
