EASY GARLIC-LEMON SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in garlic, and cook for a few seconds until fragrant. Add scallops, and cook for several minutes on one side, then turn over, and continue cooking until firm and opaque.

BBQ LEMON SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Cook over in shell on a medium BBQ grill around 10 minutes or until lemon starts to wilt and scallops are cooked.

GRILLED SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Place the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning and garlic in a large bowl or resealable plastic bag. Stir to combine the ingredients.
• Add the scallops to the bag or bowl. Toss to coat evenly with the marinade. Seal the bag or cover the bowl.
• Refrigerate and marinate for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 hours. You don't want to marinate for longer than that, as the acid in the lemon juice will start to cook the scallops.
• Thread the scallops onto skewers. This is optional, if you have very large scallops you can skip the skewers and toss them directly onto the grill.
• Heat an outdoor grill or indoor grill pan over medium high heat.
• Place the skewers or loose scallops on the grill. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side or until scallops are firm and opaque.
• Sprinkle with parsley and serve with lemon wedges.

LEMON PEPPER GRILLED SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Preheat grill to high. Blend the BBQ sauce with the lemon juice and dill. Reserve.
• Toss the pepper with the lemon zest.
• Pat the scallops dry with paper towels. Remove and discard the knob shaped muscle on the side of each scallop. Brush each scallop with butter and sprinkle evenly with salt. Place on the grate and cook for 1 minute or until the scallops release easily when lifted with the tongs.
• Brush each scallop all over with the reserved BBQ sauce mixture. Sprinkle the topside of each scallop with the reserved pepper mixture and grill 2 minutes longer or until the scallops remove easily from the grate.

QUICK MARINATED GRILLED SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Set up your grill for high heat by building coals evenly on the bottom of the grill.
• In a mixing bowl, whisk together the lemon zest and juice, garlic, chopped oregano and 1/2 cup olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, then add the scallops, tossing to coat. Allow to marinate for 10 to 30 minutes.
• Remove the scallops from the marinade, letting the excess drip off. Reserve the marinade for basting. Place the scallops on the grill and cook until charred, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip, and using the oregano brush, baste with the leftover marinade. Char on the other side, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the grill and serve.

GRILLED SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Pat dry each scallop and lay them on a tray. Sprinkle on some olive oil, coating scallops on all sides. Season the scallops with salt, black pepper, and lemon pepper, making sure that the seasoning covers all sides. Refrigerate until ready to cook.
• Grill for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Serve immediately.

BUTTERY SCALLOPS WITH LEMON AND HERBS

Steps:

• Season scallops lightly on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Heat a large, preferably nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add 3 tablespoons butter and let melt. Place seasoned scallops in the pan in a single layer without touching. (Do this in batches if necessary, using another tablespoon of butter if needed for the second batch.) Cook without moving until bottoms are golden brown, 3 minutes.
• Flip the scallops and add another tablespoon of butter to the pan. Stir in garlic and thyme, and cook until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute longer.
• If you took any of the scallops out of the pan to cook them in batches, put them back in now. Pour lemon juice on top of all the scallops, sprinkle with the lemon zest, and toss everything gently to combine.
• Transfer scallops to serving plates and sprinkle red-pepper flakes on top. Garnish with chopped soft herbs and lemon wedges, and serve immediately.

GRILLED SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil grate.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook onion and garlic until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in lemon juice and salt. Place scallops in a large bowl, and toss with butter mixture. Let stand for about 2 minutes.
• Thread scallops onto skewers, or use a wire grill basket. Cook on preheated grill for about 4 minutes per side.
• Return butter mixture to saucepan, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and keep warm while scallops cook. Toss with grilled scallops and serve.
