Tips:
- Select large, dry scallops for the best results. Smaller scallops may overcook and become tough.
- Pat the scallops dry before cooking. This will help the coating to adhere and prevent the scallops from steaming.
- Use a light hand when breading the scallops. Too much breading will weigh them down and make them soggy.
- Cook the scallops over high heat. This will help to sear the outside and keep the inside tender.
- Do not overcook the scallops. They should be cooked through but still slightly translucent in the center.
- Serve the scallops immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
