DEEP-FRIED SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Gather ingredients.
• If scallops are quite large, cut them so the sizes are fairly uniform.
• Rinse the scallops under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Remove the tough white side muscle if not already removed.
• Heat about 2 to 3 inches of vegetable oil in a deep, heavy cast-iron skillet, saucepan, or deep fryer to 350 F.
• Line a baking pan or baking sheet with 2 or 3 thicknesses of paper towels and set aside.
• In a bowl, combine flour, salt, paprika, and black pepper.
• In another bowl, whisk eggs with the milk.
• Put the fine breadcrumbs in a third bowl.
• Dip a few of the scallops in the seasoned flour mixture, then in the egg mixture, and then roll them in the breadcrumbs to coat. Repeat with the remaining scallops.
• Once the oil has reached the temperature (350 F), add several scallops―about 6 to 10 depending on the pan size―to the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Take care not to overcook. They should be warm in the middle, but still moist.
• Remove them from the oil with a metal slotted spoon and transfer them to the paper-towel-lined pan. Shake the pan gently for a few seconds so the scallops roll around and excess oil is absorbed.
• Repeat with subsequent batches.
• Serve immediately with your choice of cocktail sauce , rémoulade sauce , or tartar sauce. Enjoy.

PAN FRIED SCALLOPS AND BACON

Steps:

• The amount of scallops depends on their size, and of course, how much you want to eat!
• Scallops (no shell) with their roe if you can get them, as the nice orange colour of the roe looks good and more important it tastes good!
• Streaky bacon is best because of the fat in it. You want about 3 or 4 rashers each.
• Fry the bacon in a pan over a moderate heat until nice and brown and only just starting to get crispy.
• With the bacon still in the pan, add the scallops and move them about in the pan to get them nicley coated with all the pan juices. They will only take a couple of minutes to cook.
• It's as simple as that! Serve immediately.
