Broiled Scallops

Preheat your broiler to high.

In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, minced garlic, lemon juice, and lemon zest.

Place the scallops on a broiler-safe pan or baking dish in a single layer.

Brush the scallops generously with the butter mixture.

Broil scallops for 5-7 minutes, until they are opaque and lightly browned on top. Avoid overcooking to keep them tender.

Serve immediately, garnished with extra lemon zest or fresh herbs if desired.

Tips:

Serve with a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh salad.

For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of paprika or chili flakes before broiling.
