Time 15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

½ cup finely crushed buttery crackers (such as Ritz®)
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 pound sea scallops, patted dry
1 serving cooking spray

Steps:

  • Preheat the air fryer to 390 degrees F (198 degrees C).
  • Mix cracker crumbs, garlic powder, and seafood seasoning together in a shallow bowl. Place melted butter in a second shallow bowl.
  • Dip each scallop in the melted butter and then roll in the breading until completely coated. Set on a plate and repeat with the remaining scallops.
  • Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Arrange scallops in the prepared basket so that they are not touching each other; you may need to work in batches.
  • Cook in the preheated air fryer for 2 minutes. Turn scallops over gently with a small spatula and cook until opaque, about 2 more minutes.

These were good, but not great. The breading was a little too thick for my taste and the scallops were a little overcooked. I would try them again with a thinner breading and cook them for less time.

These were so easy to make and they turned out so well! The breading was crispy and the scallops were cooked perfectly. I served them with lemon and tartar sauce and they were a hit with my family. Will definitely be making these again.

I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out great! The only thing I would change is to cook them for a minute or two less, as they were a little overcooked for my taste. Other than that, they were delicious and I will definitely be making them

These were amazing! I used panko breadcrumbs and they were so crispy. The scallops were cooked perfectly and they were so juicy. I will definitely be making these again.
