Anyone have any suggestions for scallops? I have not had much luck in preparing them well although I love them. Have some at home  that I want to make  but stuck on how.  Please help!!!!!!

Karen had made them a cooking class a few months back and now I am hooked! Pat them dry - coat with a little bit of "searing flour" (available at wegmans although I am sure a touch of regular flour would work just fine) sautee in a little bit of olive oil - maybe 2 minutes per side. She served them with sauteed squash - yummy!

I like a bit of old bay on mine too then the flour (or some panko breadcrumbs - maybe 1 Teaspoon on 3) and satuee - yummy!

Michele,

The key is to not overcook them or they become rubbery... literally 2 - 3 minutes per side for the large dry sea scallops is just fine...

Cilantro and basil are both nice accents... a little garlic... whatever you like best!

Enjoy,
Karen

I used to like mine in stewed tomatoes, but haven't had them for years.

Some days your the dog and some days your the hydrant.

BBQ Bacon Scallops

Slice bacon in half.
Cook bacon until chewy
Wrap 1 piece of bacon around scallop
Dab a little BBQ on top

Bake for a few minutes. (depends on oven) I have also make a small batch in toaster oven and they turn out wonderful.

When life hands you lemons, ask for tequila & salt and give me a call!

I do this with shrimp too - buy the peeled raw ones.

I usually use the larger sea scallops.  Just saute them in a bit of oil with some green onion and fresh ginger.  Nothing more.  Maybe 3-4 minutes on each side over medium heat.  Don't overcook or they get rubbery.  Actually the best way I've had them.  Simple but good.
