Recipe View Serve Immediately: Remove from the oven and serve immediately. Garnish with a lemon wedge and a sprinkle of fresh parsley, if desired.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the bread crumb mixture for a subtle kick.
Ensure the scallops are thoroughly drained to prevent a watery dish.
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese provides a superior flavor compared to pre-grated.
Bay scallops cook quickly; be careful not to overbake them, or they will become rubbery.

    The breadcrumb topping was perfectly crispy. Will definitely make again!

  • Jaydon Nitzsche

    My scallops turned out a little rubbery. I think I overcooked them. Next time, I'll check them a few minutes earlier.

  • Alana Mcclure

    I added a squeeze of lemon juice before baking and it really brightened up the flavors.
