My husband & I have been trying very hard not to eat out because of our recession. That means I've been cooking dinner everyday. Pretty much all the things I've posted in the past have been eaten over and over again....until today.
Today I made Parmesan-Crusted Broiled Sea Scallops. They were delicious. Jumbo Sea Scallops were on sale (and not because they were about to go bad) so Andy picked up 10 which is about 1.2 lbs. We used the recipe below which I found through a google search and happened to show up on one of my favorite recipe websites - myrecipes.com. We didn't have melba toasts as called for in the recipe, so I used panko bread crumbs that I had on hand. Panko are japanese style bread crumbs.
These scallops were fantastic! They were so rich and delicious with a crunchy outside and buttery scallop inside. We had them with asparagus which is recently in season and Trader Joe's Harvest Blend of cous cous, orzo, quinoa and baby chickpeas. It was a restaurant meal at a fraction of the cost. I highly recommend this scallop recipe.

That sounds fantastic. I've never cooked scallops, but I love eating them. I have some recipes on my blog, maybe one a month, but you can see the Labels/Tags along the side and sort by the recipes I've posted (I think there are maybe 5-6). Don't you just love Trader Joe's? I work next to one and I try to go often.
