Ingredients

• ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
• ½ cup olive oil
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley
• ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
• ½ teaspoon garlic salt
• ½ cup fine Italian bread crumbs
• 16 large sea scallops

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.

Step 2

Mix bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, garlic salt, and black pepper together in a bowl.

Step 3

Pour olive oil into a shallow bowl.

Step 4

Rinse scallops under cold water, then dip into the olive oil.

Step 5

Press scallops into bread crumb mixture. Gently toss between your hands so any bread crumbs that haven't stuck can fall away. Place the breaded scallops onto a plate while breading the rest.

Step 6

Place the scallops in the refrigerator to allow the breading to set, 20 to 30 minutes.

Step 7

Brush the scallops lightly with more olive oil.

Step 8

Grill on the preheated grill until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes.
