From Willow Grove, Pennsylvania, Martina Preston writes, I never liked seafood until my husband urged me to try scallops, and now I love them. He says my breaded version is the best he's ever had. TIP: I put them on a paper-towel-topped plate to soak up excess oil, Martina notes.
Ingredients:
1 egg
1/3 cup mashed potato flakes
1/3 cup seasoned bread crumbs
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
3/4 pound sea scallops
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon canola oil
Directions:
1. In a shallow bowl, beat the egg. In another bowl, combine the potato flakes, bread crumbs, salt and pepper. Dip scallops in egg, then roll in potato mixture.
2. In a large skillet, heat butter and oil over medium heat. Add scallops; cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until scallops are opaque and coating is golden brown. Yield: 2 servings.
