Seafood makes any meal feel like a special occasion.

Ingredients:

Cooking spray
1/2 cup chopped onions
1 cup uncooked orzo
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1 cup fat-free, less sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 pounds sea scallops
