Baked Scallop Appetizer

April 27, 2018 by mgrc Leave a Comment

For an elegant first course to your next special dinner, try this simple and attractive appetizer. While the grapefruit adds a refreshing flavor contrast to the scallops, it also makes them more affordable.

You can assemble this recipe a few hours in advance up through step 4. The dishes should be covered and refrigerated until you are ready to proceed. Add 3 to 4 minuets to baking time.

You can use fresh or frozen scallops. If using fresh, thaw before starting the recipe.

This recipe is for four servings.
For 2 servings, half of the ingredients.
For 8 servings, double the ingredients.

Quick and Tasty.
