Serving

2 cups water
16 sea scallops (about 2 lb)
1 tsp salt
1-1/2 cups thinly sliced fresh mushrooms
2 shallots, finely chopped
1/4 cup butter, cubed
sauce:
2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
3/4 cup 2% milk
2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
2 tbsp sherry
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp lemon juice
1/4 tsp pepper
1/8 tsp grated lemon peel

Directions:

Place water in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; add scallops and poach, uncovered, for 6 minutes or until firm and opaque. Drain scallops, reserving 1 cup liquid.

For sauce, in a small saucepan, melt butter. Stir in flour until smooth; gradually add milk and reserved poaching liquid. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Stir in the cheese, sherry, salt, lemon juice, pepper and lemon peel; add to skillet.
Divide scallop mixture among eight scallop shells. Combine bread crumbs and melted butter; sprinkle over tops. Place on an ungreased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Bake at 375° for 8-12 minutes or until crumbs are golden brown. Yield: 8 servings.
