We’ve made this with small bay scallops or larger sea scallops. It works well with both. Just cook the larger scallops a couple extra minutes. This recipe is for 2.
Ingredients:
- 1 Pound fresh scallops
- 1/2 Cup The Net Gourmet Fish Topping (or crushed Ritz crackers)
- 1/4 Teaspoon Garlic Powder
- Pinch or salt and pepper
- 1/4 Cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 Cup melted butter (4 tablespoons)
- 1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 Tablespoon dry vermouth (or dry white wine)
- Chopped parsley and sliced lemon for garnish
Directions: Preheat oven to 375° F
Arrange scallops in an 8 or 9 inch baking dish. In a small bowl, mix together the crumbs, garlic powder, salt and pepper then sprinkle it over the scallops. Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese evenly over the crumbs. Microwave the butter until melted in a small container. Mix in the lemon and vermouth then drizzle on top of the cheese.
Cover and cook for 15 minutes. Remove the cover and switch the oven to broil. Brown under the broiler for 2 or 3 minutes. Watch carefully because it will burn quickly. Garnish with parsley and lemon.
This is great served with rice. In our picture we have served it over spaghetti squash.
