  2. Return wine mixture to pan. Add cream; cook over medium heat 1 minute. Add butter, stirring until butter melts. Stir in tomato and next 3 ingredients. Add linguine; toss well. Cover and keep warm.
  3. Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Sprinkle scallops with 1/8 teaspoon salt. Arrange scallops in pan; cook 2 minutes on each side or until done. Add scallops to pasta mixture; toss gently to combine. Garnish with cilantro, if desired.

  5. WINE NOTE: Sweet scallops are beautifully offset by fresh, sassy Sauvignon Blanc: Firestone, Honig, and St. Supery. Or try Meridian Sauvignon Blanc, a steal at about $8.
