The ingredients for Champagne-Sauteed Sea Scallops are:

1 tbsp reduced-calorie margarine
3 small garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup champagne
1 1/2 pounds sea scallops
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp dill or basil
4 lemon wedges

Here is how you make Champagne-Sauteed Sea Scallops:

Melt the margarine in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until just golden, about 2 minutes. Pour in the champagne and cook until warm, 1 minute. Add the scallops and cook until just opaque throughout, about 3 minutes per side, sprinkling each side with the salt and pepper during cooking.Transfer to a platter or plates and spoon some of the cooking liquid over the top. Sprinkle with basil or dill and serve with lemon wedges for squeezing. These taste fabulous over angel hair pasta (you'll need 2 cups cooked, which is about 4 oz dry). To moisten and flavor the pasta, toss it with the cooking liquid from the scallops.
