    Abolutely wonderful recipe! I served this with Alfredo Sauce (Alfredo Sauce)over pasta and it was a hit! The only change I made was heat (people with sensitive tummies): Instead of pepper and cayenne I used Mrs. Dash gently shaking the seasoning over the crumbs and stirring it in each time before dredging with the scallops. It was fantastic!

    Very easy and delicious! The crumb mixture gives the scallops a nice flavor without overpowering them. I used bay scallops and just dumped them in a bowl with the crumbs, stirring to coat. Then dumped into a bowl with the egg and stirred... well, you get the idea. The scallops were pretty small, so this method was easier for me. I sprayed them with butter flavor cooking spray then baked them at a slightly higher heat for about 8 minutes.

    Kat, Since scallops came in all sizes, I would give the the small ones around 6-8 minutes and the largest around 25-30 minutes. Cook them until they are opaque clear through. Barb

    I made a few alterations to make the recipe relatively fat-free, and a little hotter. It was fantastic!! Egg Beaters instead of the egg and water, Garlic Fat Free Wegmans bread crumbs, lemon juice, jarred minced garlic and I Can't believe its not Butter" Spray. My husband raved! Said it was "pretty rich". If he'd only known how much I cheated on the recipe he said sounded awesome. Thank you, for such a great basis for many dishes to come!
