Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Melt 1/4 cup of
the butter in a small skillet and add the
mushrooms. Cook, stirring often, until the
mushrooms are wilted and give up their liquid.
Add the shallots and garlic and cook briefly.
Spoon the mushroom mix into a mixing bowl. Let
cool, then add 2 tablespoons of the remaining
butter, scallops, bread crumbs, parsley, and
salt and pepper to taste. Blend well. Use the
mix to fill 6 seaford shells. Arrange the
filled shells on a baking dish or cookie sheet.
Melt the rest of the butter and pour it over
the mix in the shells. Place in the oven and
bake 10 minutes. Run the scallops under the
broiler until nicely browned on top.
