Cajun Seafood Pasta

This recipe is a hot one, but delicious! If you are weak of tongue, then 
divide the amounts of peppers in half. Better to add more than spoil your 
creation! Bay scallops are preferred, but the larger sea scallops can be 
used if they are cut in half. This dish can also be placed in a casserole 
dish and placed under the broiler until top turns golden brown!
