Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Scallops

    Place the dayboat scallops in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure the scallops are well coated. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Pan

    If grilling, preheat the grill to medium-high heat. If using a skillet, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Cook the Scallops

    Remove the scallops from the marinade and let the excess marinade drip off. Place the scallops on the grill or in the hot skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and opaque in the center.

  3. 5

    Prepare for Serving

    Once cooked, transfer the scallops to a serving plate. Garnish with fresh parsley leaves and serve with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the scallops.
