Time 35m

Yield 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 lbs jumbo deep sea scallops (diver's scallops)
1/2 cup fresh butter
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon white wine (optional)
3/4 cup fine plain breadcrumbs
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon thyme, finely chopped
1 fresh lemon, quartered

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Place the butter and garlic (and the white wine, if using) into an oven proof baking dish (I use a pyrex pie plate).
  • Microwave on high heat for 30 seconds to 1 minute, just until butter is melted (or, you may place the dish of butter into the hot oven for a few minutes, until butter melts).
  • Rinse scallops well under cold water. Arrange rinsed scallops (no need to dry them) in the dish of melted butter.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, parsley and lemon thyme. Sprinkle breadcrumb mixture evenly over scallops.
  • Squeeze the juice of one lemon quarter evenly over the scallops.
  • Bake at 400 degrees F for 18 to 20 minutes.
  • To Serve:.
  • Serve with additional fresh lemon wedges at the table.
  • A delicious meal served with a crisp green salad and pasta or French bread, plus a glass of white wine! Or, may be served as an appetizer.
