Baked Shrimp or Scallops Recipe - (3/5) image

Provided by AbbyIvie

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pounds large shrimp, peeled and deveined OR 2 pounds bay scallops
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/4 fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup green onions, chopped
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup Italian style bread crumbs
fresh dill
1/4 cup toasted almonds, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400. Arrange shrimp OR scallops in a single layer on a baking sheet with shallow sides. Mix together wine, butter, lemon juice. Pour evenly over shrimp or scallops. Sprinkle onions, parsley, salt, bread crumbs and nuts over shrimp or scallops Bake uncovered 20 minutes. Drizzle juice over shrimp or scallops and serve with crusty bread. **If using frozen shrimp or scallops thaw first and lightly squeeze excess moisture before arranging on baking sheet.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest seafood possible: Fresh shrimp and scallops have a sweet, briny flavor and a firm, springy texture. Avoid seafood that is slimy, discolored, or has an off odor.
  • Thaw frozen seafood properly: If you are using frozen shrimp or scallops, thaw them in the refrigerator overnight or under cold running water for 30 minutes. Do not thaw seafood at room temperature, as this can promote the growth of bacteria.
  • Season the seafood well: Shrimp and scallops have a mild flavor, so they benefit from being seasoned well. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika to create a flavorful rub.
  • Cook the seafood over high heat: High heat will help to sear the seafood and prevent it from becoming tough. Cook shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side or until they are pink and opaque. Cook scallops for 3-4 minutes per side or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
  • Serve the seafood immediately: Baked shrimp and scallops are best served immediately after they are cooked. This will help to prevent them from becoming dry or overcooked.
