The tastiest scallops you will ever try. I like my food with a little zip, but you can leave out the cayenne pepper if you don't like it spicy.

The scallops were a little bland. I think I will add some more salt and pepper next time.

The balsamic reduction was a little too sweet for my taste, but the scallops were cooked perfectly.

The scallops were a little overcooked for my taste, but the balsamic reduction was delicious. I will try this recipe again and cook the scallops for a shorter amount of time.

The scallops were cooked evenly and had a nice sear. The balsamic reduction was flavorful and complemented the scallops well.
