  • Ingredients
     
    • 500g Queen Scallops on Shells
    • Olive oil
    • 2-3 stalks parsley (chopped)
    • 1 lemon (cut in wedges)

  • Method
     
    1. To make the butter, place all the ingredients up to and including the butter into a food processor.
    2. Blend to a smooth consistency, season with lemon juice, salt and pepper and set aside
    3. Preheat the grill to a high temperature.
    4. Rinse the scallops under cold water and gently slide a knife under the scallop meat to remove the scallops from their shells.
    5. Pat dry both shell and scallop with kitchen paper. Drizzle a little oil into the shells. Place the scallops back into their shells and dot the garlic butter over the scallops and cook under the grill for 2-3 minutes. Or cook in a preheated oven at 230°C/Fan 210°C/Gas 8 for 3-4 minutes.
    6. Remove from oven, sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve immediately with lemon and french bread.
