BALSAMIC-GLAZED SEA SCALLOPS

Remove from the skillet and cover to keep warm.
• Add white wine, balsamic vinegar, and Dijon mustard to the skillet and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom. Cook until glaze is slightly thick and syrupy, 3 to 4 minutes.
