Number Of Ingredients 3

18 sea scallops
1/2 c whole grain dijon mustard
1/4 c real maple syrup

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • 2. Place scallops 1" apart on a foil or parchment lined baking sheet with sides.
  • 3. Combine mustard & maple syrup.
  • 4. Liberally coat the scallops with mixture using a pastry brush.
  • 5. Bake 20-30 minutes, depending on size, until cooked through & opaque.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality scallops. Frozen scallops can be used, but fresh scallops will give the dish a better flavor and texture.
  • Sear the scallops quickly over high heat. This will help to develop a nice crust on the outside while keeping the inside tender and juicy.
  • Be careful not to overcook the scallops. They should be cooked just until they are opaque throughout, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Make sure the sauce is hot before serving. You can reheat it gently in a saucepan over low heat.
  • Serve the scallops immediately with the sauce. They can be served over rice, pasta, or your favorite vegetable.

The sweet and tangy sauce complements the delicate flavor of the scallops perfectly. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is sure to impress your family and friends.
