Panko & Parmesan Crusted Baked Scallops

Fish

This baked scallops recipe features a delightful balance of a crunchy, golden-brown topping and tender, sweet scallops. They feel decadent like scallops should, thanks to the tasty lemon-butter sauce.

Ingredients

3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 pound large dry sea scallops (about 16 scallops; see Tip)
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon ground pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons chopped shallot
½ cup whole-wheat panko breadcrumbs
1 ounce Parmesan cheese, grated (about 1/4 cup)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Description

Preheat oven to 425°F. Coat the bottom of an 8-inch-square baking dish with 1 tablespoon oil.
Pat scallops dry; arrange them in a single layer in the dish. Sprinkle the scallops evenly with salt and pepper.
Whisk melted butter, lemon juice and shallot in a small bowl. Pour the butter mixture over the scallops. In the same bowl, combine panko, Parmesan, parsley and the remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Sprinkle the panko mixture evenly over the scallops.
Bake until the scallops are opaque and the topping is golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Serve hot.
