This is a quick meal to whip up for lunch or dinner. I used frozen scallops making this even easier to make. I did soak the scallops in room temperature water for 5 minutes prior. Once cooked the scallop sauce pairs well with the rice!

I am looking for an easy recipe using scallops. Any suggestions?
By Sabrina Barr from Council, NC
I like to put about half a stick of butter in a pie pan. Add the scallops & kind of roll them around in the butter.
Well aren't you smart! I'll give that a try. Thank you.
Our favorite and only way is to cook them on the grill. This only applies to the larger sea scallops. Seasoning is not necessary. They caramelize from their natural sweetness. Just be careful not to overcook.
This delicious garlic and basil seasoned scallop recipe is quick and easy to make. Follow the instructions provided to prepare them so that they turn out just right, not undercooked or rubbery.
