Notes

For a lighter version, use half-and-half or coconut cream instead of heavy cream. If you cannot find scallops, try using shrimp or chicken breast as substitutes. Add a pinch of lemon zest for an extra layer of flavor. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days, and reheat gently to maintain creaminess. This dish pairs wonderfully with steamed asparagus or a simple salad for a complete meal.
