Ingredients

  • 20 large sea scallops
  • 1/2 cup fine dry plain bread crumbs
  • 1/3 cup freshly grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
  • 1/2 cup loosely packed Italian parsley leaves
  • 2 tbls lemon zest
  • 1 tbls extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp lemon juice

Directions

  1. Wash and dry the scallops. Mix together all of the ingredients. Cover the scallops in the mixture.

  2. We elected to grill the scallops on a tray, only because the scallops were not overly firm. I try to never use a tray, but in the case it seemed a necessity. With the scallops on a tray, they were placed over direct low heat and indirect high. They were done in about 15 minutes.
