I found this recipe in Coastal Living. It calls for Pernod which is a licorice-flavored liqueur, but I would think you can leave it out if you wish. I also think you can substitute clams for the scallops.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon butter
1 large onion, finely chopped
2 large potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 lb sea scallops, chopped
1 quart whipping cream
1/4 cup pernod
1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
chopped fresh chives (to garnish)
Directions:
1. Melt butter ina Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion and saute 4 minutes or until tender.
2. Add potatoes and cook 4 minutes.
3. Add scallops and cook 2 minutes.
4. Stir in whipping cream. Cover and reduce heat; simmer 20 minutes.
5. Stir in Pernod, if using, thyme, salt, and pepper.
6. Cover and simmer an additional 10 minutes.
7. Garnish, if desired.
