Scallops Parmesan Recipes

PAN SEARED PARMESAN SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Pat scallops dry with paper towels. Place cheese ¡n shallow dish or resealable food-storage plastic bag. Coat scallops with cheese. Discard any remaining cheese.
• Heat oil and butter in 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook half of scallops at a time in oil 3 to 6 minutes, turning once, until golden brown on outside and white and opaque inside. Sprinkle with pepper and chives.

PARMESAN SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Combine the cracker crumbs and Parmesan cheese in a zip-top bag. Shake bag to mix well.
• Place scallops in a small bowl and pour cream over. Stir to fully coat scallops.
• One at a time, drop the cream coated scallops into the cracker crumb mixture. Gently press scallop into the crumbs to coat and shake off any excess. Place the breaded scallops onto a plate while breading the rest; do not stack.
• Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When butter is hot and frothy, add the scallops, being careful not to crowd the pan. Cook scallops, covered, until crispy on the outside and just cooked through on the inside, about 2 minutes per side. Cook in 2 batches if necessary. Serve immediately.

GRILLED GARLIC PARMESAN CRUSTED SCALLOPS

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.

BUTTER PARMESAN BAKED SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°.
• Mix melted butter, salt, and pressed garlic in a small bowl and set it aside.
• Mix Panko bread crumbs and grated Parmesan cheese in another shallow bowl and set it aside.
• Take scallops out of the package and pat each one dry with a paper towel.
• Toss scallops in the melted butter mixture and then coat each one in Panko/Parmesan mixture on all sides.
• Place coated scallops in a baking dish that's large enough to hold them with some space in between each one.
• Carefully pour in remaining melted butter in between and around the scallops. (Don't pour on top.)
• Sprinkle each scallop with some Parmesan cheese and bake for 10-14 minutes, depending on the size.

BROWN BUTTER SCALLOPS WITH PARMESAN RISOTTO

Steps:

• In a large non-stick skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the garlic or shallots and saute for a minute or two, until soft and fragrant. Add the arborio rice, stir to coat with butter. Add the white wine and enjoy the sizzles. Add the broth, 1/2 cup at a time, and simmer/stir after each addition until the rice is soft and creamy. I usually err on the side of more liquid to get a creamier texture. Add the parmesan and stir until incorporated. Salt + pepp to taste.
• Heat oil in nonstick skillet. Pat scallops dry (VERY DRY, as dry as possible), sprinkle with salt, and add to pan. They should sizzle (if not, you need a hotter pan.) Shake gently to prevent sticking. After 2-3 minutes, flip each scallop over. They should have a pretty golden brown exterior and an opaque inside. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate to absorb excess oil. Serve immediately.
• Heat the oil over medium low heat. Add the garlic, stir for a minute to get the flavor going. Add the spinach or kale and stir until wilted.
• Put a few tablespoons of butter in a clean skillet over medium heat and stir it while watching it closely - when it starts to look golden and foamy, remove from heat, transfer to a heat-proof bowl to cool slightly, then drizzle over the risotto, scallops, and greens.

SCALLOP RECIPE WITH CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Start cooking pasta according to the package instructions, if you're serving these scallops with pasta. Cook it at the same time as scallops and sauce, strain, and set aside.
