The Realtor's Sauteed Scallops With Lemon Mustard Sauce

I serve these delicious little gems on top of big crusty slices of garlic bread... Yum! it's supposed to serve 4 as a main dish but my dh and i finish this off ourselves. as an appetizer, it will serve 8. if you like my idea for serving, be sure to pick up a big loaf of italian bread to make the garlic bread (it's not in the ingredient list). i found this in a magazine some time ago.
