One of my new inventions this dish is awesome! I invented on new years day that i was spending at lake norman, nc. With my boyfriend then i wanted to surprise him and make something different for dinner so i came up with the idea of making scallops. This orange glaze pairs up so well with scallops. So easy to make yet delicious. You must try!!!!
