scallops

Hi, has anyone got an easy recipe for scallops Please.

[scoobysoo]

I wrap them in streaky bacon, sprinkle some sage or thyme over them, and cook in some olive oil and butter in a frying pan. When the bacon is cooked, the scallops will be, and I squirt some lemon over them at the end. Sometimes I also add a squirt of sweet chilli sauce, which makes it go all sticky and lovely!! Nice served with risotto and salad...yummy!!

sounds very nice but i dont eat bacon, i know ive seen a recipe which has mash potato on the top of the scallop once placed back into their shell, cant find one tho. x

In that case helpmetoo, I think Jamie Oliver should have put it on his school dinners menu, observing most kids!!

To be a bit more helpful....

Try stir frying with ginger and spring onion and garlic, serve as a starter with Chinese food - add yellow bean sauce too if you like it, a dash of soy if not.

Pan fry in garlic butter for just a couple of minutes. Lovely with sliced avocado & garlic mayo.
