I remember the day that my husband, who used to do some diving, went to the coast and proceeded to dive for scallops. He brought them home and I fixed them. Delicious!! One minute they were in the ocean and one and one-half hours later they were on the table. Can't get much fresher than that.
Ingredients:
1 lb of maine scallops
3/4 cup seasoned bread crumbs (i use italian)
1/2 cup melted butter
1 minced garlic clove (optional)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
salt and pepper
Directions:
1. Rinse scallops in cold water; shake off excess.
2. Coat with the bread crumbs and place scallops in a buttered casserole dish in a single layer.
3. Season with lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
4. Combine the butter and garlic in a small saucepan and stir over low heat till butter is melted and garlic is soft.
5. Pour over scallops.
6. Bake at 375 for 15-20 minutes or till scallops are cooked through.
