1/2 cup dry champagne
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

The scallops were a bit bland, but the sauce was good. I would add more seasoning to the scallops next time.

The scallops were a bit overcooked, but the sauce was delicious. I will try this recipe again, but I will cook the scallops for a shorter amount of time.
