Pin Recipe
- 16-20 sea scallops

Pat scallops dry with paper towels and remove any tough side muscle, if any, by pulling it off with your fingers.
16-20 sea scallops

Place the sea scallops in a single layer in your baking dish and top them with the breadcrumb mixture. Sprinkle the reserved bit of Parmesan over the top.
-
Bake the breadcrumb topped scallops in the oven for 15-18 minutes, or until golden-brown.
