This is my kid's favorite dish to order at our favorite seafood restaurant in coastal North Carolina. They are so good! This isn't a copy cat recipe, just me trying to mimick an awesome dish. I think I've come close!

I followed the recipe exactly, but my scallops didn't turn out crispy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

The scallops were a bit bland. I think I would add more seasoning next time.

These scallops were a bit overcooked for my taste, but they still had a good flavor.

This is my go-to recipe for fried sea scallops. They're always crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
