Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Puree the tomatoes in a food mill, blender or food processor. Combine in a small nonreactive saucepan with the shallot, garlic and cream. Bring to a boil, turn the heat to low and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the parsley, and keep warm.
- Step 3
Place the scallops on a nonstick or lightly greased baking sheet, and bake for 3 minutes.

Reheat the sauce slightly; over minimum heat, whisk in the butter a little at a time until the sauce thickens slightly. Add the chives.

Serve the scallops with a bit of the sauce.
