Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 1/4 pounds large sea scallops
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
  • lemon wedges for serving

Instruction

  • Place the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning and garlic in a large bowl or resealable plastic bag. Stir to combine the ingredients.
  • Add the scallops to the bag or bowl. Toss to coat evenly with the marinade. Seal the bag or cover the bowl.
  • Refrigerate and marinate for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 hours. You don't want to marinate for longer than that, as the acid in the lemon juice will start to cook the scallops.
  • Thread the scallops onto skewers. This is optional, if you have very large scallops you can skip the skewers and toss them directly onto the grill.
  • Heat an outdoor grill or indoor grill pan over medium high heat.
  • Place the skewers or loose scallops on the grill. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side or until scallops are firm and opaque.
  • Sprinkle with parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
