Introduction

Yummy way to help zest fresh scallops! Yummy way to help zest fresh scallops!
Number of Servings: 4

Ingredients

    1 1/2 lbs fresh sea scallops
    4 tbsps margarine spread, melted
    1/2 cup dried seasoned bread crumbs
    1 tsp onion powder
    1 tsp garlic powder
    1 tsp paprika
    1 tsp dried parsley
    1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Pour melted butter into a 2 quart casserole dish. Distribute butter and scallops evenly inside the dish.
(make sure the scallops aren't cold when you do this or it will turn the butter hard again and you'll just have a big old mess!)
Combine dry ingredients in another bowl and sprinkle over scallops.
Bake in preheated oven until scallops are firm, about 20 minutes.

This is the recipe my family has used for quite some time, but there are lots of things you can do and different ingredients you can use to lower the sodium and fat content.
If you use the big sea scallops, its also nice to cut them up into bite size pieces before you do anything else to make sure all the flavor gets into them.

Makes 4 servings.

    Loved the recipe! Soo easy to do. I changed it a little by adding lemon herb and dried rosemary. Will definitely make again. - 9/10/12

    Very tasty. I dipped the scallops in the melted margarine first and then dredged them in the bread crumbs. After that I sprinkled the remaining bread crumb mixture over the top. Will definitely be making these again! - 5/30/11

    It was so easy to make and tasted very good. I am not much of a "seafood" fan but the flavors that were bursting out of this dish was delicious. - 1/15/11
