Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb sea scallops cut if they are huge.
1 3/4-1 sleeve town house crackers only. do not substitute
1 pinch salt
1 pinch black pepper
1 tsp dried parsley ( use fresh if wanted)
1/4 tsp thyme, dried
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp basil, dried
1/2 a lemon
6 Tbsp butter
1-2 c milk for soaking

Steps:

  • 5. Place scallops in a bowl . Mix a squeeze of lemon with 1/2 the butter. Pour over scallops and toss.
  • 6. Sprinkle half the cracker crumb mixture on a sheet pan. Bake until turning golden. Sprinkle over the scallops and toss to combine.
  • 7. Toss remaining cracker crumbs with butter and a squeeze of lemon. Sprinkle over the top of the scallops. Place in oven and bake for 20-30 minutes, or until cooked thtough. Turn oven on to broil to make crumbs golden brown on top. Remove from oven and serve.

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb scallops
1 roll of ritz crackers, crushed
a little garlic powder
sprinkle of lemon juice
sprigs of parsley
1/4 c melted butter

Steps:

  • 1. Place scallops, crackers, parsley and garlic powder in bag and shake. Place in glass baking dish. Sprinkle with lemon juice and pour melted butter on or just dabs of butter on top. Bake for 30 minutes in a 350 degree oven. Don't over-bake so check for doneness at about 20 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest scallops possible. Look for scallops that are plump and have a slightly briny smell. Avoid scallops that are slimy or have a strong fishy odor.
  • Rinse the scallops thoroughly before cooking. This will help to remove any grit or sand.
  • Pat the scallops dry before stuffing them. This will help the stuffing to adhere to the scallops.
  • Don't overstuff the scallops. The stuffing should be just enough to fill the scallop without making it too full.
  • Bake the scallops at a high temperature. This will help to sear the scallops and keep them from becoming rubbery.
  • Serve the scallops immediately after baking. This is when they will be at their best.

Conclusion:

Baked stuffed scallops are a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little planning, you can create a dish that will impress your guests and leave them wanting more.
