Bay Scallops Gratinee

Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris, or Pinot Grigio are all good wines to use in this recipe because they are light and crisp and won't overpower the delicate scallops.

SERVES 4

1 tablespoon butter, softened

1 pound bay scallops

2 tablespoons white wine

Salt and pepper to taste

¼ cup panko breadcrumbs

1 garlic clove, pressed

1 teaspoon lemon zest

1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

1 teaspoon lemon juice

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.

  • Butter a gratin dish and arrange the bay scallops in one layer over the butter. Sprinkle the white wine over the scallops and season them with salt and pepper.

  • Combine the bread crumbs, garlic, lemon zest, and parsley and sprinkle the mixture over the scallops.

  • Bake for 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle the lemon juice over the scallops.

  • Serve immediately.
