Recipe Details

Broiled Scallops

Number of Servings: 4

Serving Size: 1/4 of scallops plus 1 tablespoon of tartar sauce

The naturally sweet and succulent taste of scallops requires a minimum of added ingredients. Scallops cook very quickly, so be careful not to overdo or they'll become rubbery.

Sea scallops are better suited for broiling than the smaller bay scallops. If you decide to use bay scallops, sauté them over medium heat in a large nonstick pan sprayed with vegetable cooking instead of broiling them; they'll cook in just a minute or two.
