Desciption

i found this recipe online, the blue heaven is a fantastic key west restaurant that i used to frequent, eat outside with roosters running around you, a great tire swing in the yard...it's a kind of eclectic (young hippy-like) restaurant with award winning gourmet chefs.

14. Capers which will cool down the pan so the scallops and garlic stop cooking
15. Cook for just a minute
16. Add the wine or broth
17. Stir it up to get the scrapings into the sauce and simmer for a minute or two
18. Remove from heat and add the butter slice
