“Grilling Scallops at Home? Unlock the Secret with Lemon and Parsley Sauce!”
Grilled Scallops with Lemon and Parsley Sauce
As a stay at home parent, I know how important it is to have a few tried-and-true dinner recipes on hand. On nights when dinner needs to be ready in a pinch, I always turn to my favorite meal of grilled scallops with lemon and parsley sauce. Not only is it incredibly delicious, but it’s also incredibly simple to make.
Whenever I make this dish, I can’t help but recall the time I made it for my family at a dinner party. Everyone was so impressed with the presentation and the taste that they kept asking for seconds. It’s one of those meals that you know will be a hit every time.
To make this meal, you’ll need:
• 1 lb of scallops
• 2 cloves of garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons of olive oil
• Juice of 1 lemon
• 2 tablespoons of chopped parsley
• Salt and pepper to tasteBegin by preheating your grill to medium-high heat. Meanwhile, in a small bowl combine the garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, parsley and salt and pepper. Mix until everything is well combined. Then take your scallops and place them on skewers (if using wooden skewers, make sure to soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling). Once the grill is heated brush some of the marinade onto each scallop and place them on the grill for about 4 minutes per side or until they are lightly charred and cooked through. Once cooked through, brush some more marinade on top and serve with lemon wedges.
This dish always goes over well with my family and friends because it has such a fresh flavor that isn’t overpowering. The garlic adds just enough zing while the parsley adds a nice herbal note that really brings out all of the flavors in this dish. Plus, it takes no time at all to prepare so it’s perfect for busy weeknights!
If you’re looking for a tasty dinner that can be prepared quickly and easily, then you should definitely give grilled scallops with lemon and parsley sauce a try! It’s sure to please even the pickiest eaters in your family.
