   3. Reduce heat to medium-high and cook for 2 minutes, then turn the scallops and prawns and add the garlic and basil, shaking pan to distrubte them evenly. Cook for a further 2 minutes until golden and just firm to the touch. Sprinkle over the lemon juice and toss to blend. For a richer sauce, transfer the cooked scallops and prawns to a warmed plate. Pour in 4 tbsp dry white wine and boil to reduce by half. Add 1 tbsp unsalted butter, whisking until it melts and the sauce thickens lightly. Pour over the scallops and prawns.
