INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

  • 1 1/2 pounds sea scallops, rinsed and patted dry
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  2. Arrange scallops in a single layer in a baking dish. Combine wine and lemon juice in a small measuring pitcher. Add salt and pepper to taste, and pour over the scallops.
  3. Combine cracker crumbs, pecans, and parsley in a small bowl. Spoon evenly over the scallops. Drizzle the crumb topping with melted butter.
  4. Bake in preheated oven until topping is golden and scallops are opaque, 10 to 12 minutes.

FOOTNOTES

  • Cook's Tip
  • Bay scallops can be substituted for sea scallops. If using smaller bay scallops, lower the oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C), and bake 5 to 7 minutes.
