Grilled Scallops Recipes

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.

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.

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.

Steps:

• Mix bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, garlic salt, and black pepper together in a bowl.
• Pour olive oil into a shallow bowl.
• Rinse scallops under cold water, then dip into the olive oil.
• Press scallops into bread crumb mixture. Gently toss between your hands so any bread crumbs that haven't stuck can fall away. Place the breaded scallops onto a plate while breading the rest.
• Place the scallops in the refrigerator to allow the breading to set, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Brush the scallops lightly with more olive oil.
• Grill on the preheated grill until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes.
