This recipe was recently featured on a Kraft foods eNewsletter, and came at the most appropriate time–scallop season! We both love scallops and have recently started to love Alfredo sauce, so I figured this would be a match made in heaven! It was!!! Super delicious and yet very easy! If your using frozen scallops makes sure you thaw them before cooking in the hot oil or they will splatter everywhere!
