Steps:
- For the roasted garlic: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Using a basting brush, coat the garlic with the olive oil, place on a baking sheet, cover with aluminum foil and roast until the garlic lightly browns and softens to the touch, about 1 1/2 hours. Let cool, then roughly cut and set aside.
- For the sauce: In a large saute pan (12- to 14-inch nonstick preferred) on medium-high heat, add the roasted garlic, butter and onions and saute until the onions are translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the heavy cream, wine, clams, salt and pepper and bring to a boil. (Do not walk away as cream has a tendency to boil over.) As the cream starts to boil, adjust the flame to a lower setting to prevent it from boiling over. Simmer the sauce until more than half of the clams have opened; The sauce will have reduced and thickened by almost half. Add the crabmeat, scallops and shrimp and simmer until the shrimp starts to curl up and the scallops start to swell, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Add the Romano, Parmesan and green onions. The sauce will immediately start to thicken. Simmer for just about 1 minute to incorporate the Romano and Parmesan cheeses. Remove from the flame and serve over your favorite pasta.

Steps:
- Combine scallop scraps, water, and white wine in a small nonreactive saucepan. Set the pan over medium-high heat, and bring to a boil. Cook until the liquid has reduced by half, about 7 minutes.
- Add cream; boil until liquid has reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Remove pan from heat, and whisk in the butter, piece by piece. Season with salt and pepper. Serve warm.
Tips
- Use fresh scallops. Fresh scallops have a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen scallops. If you must use frozen scallops, thaw them in the refrigerator overnight or under cold running water for 30 minutes.
- Sear the scallops properly. Searing the scallops creates a golden crust and helps to lock in the juices. To sear the scallops, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallops and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and opaque in the center.
- Make sure the butter sauce is hot. The butter sauce should be hot when you add the scallops. This will help to melt the butter and evenly coat the scallops.
- Add the scallops to the butter sauce at the end. Adding the scallops to the butter sauce at the end will help to prevent them from overcooking.
- Serve the scallops immediately. Scallops are best served immediately after they are cooked. They can be served over pasta, rice, or vegetables.
