A delicious scallop starter to prepare with a twist thanks to the ginger.


Serves 4, Preparation 10 minutes, Cooking 15 minutes

  • 12 scallops (at least n° 3 per person)
  • A bunch of fresh parsley, chopped
  • Fresh ginger or the dry one, half teaspoon
  • Breadcrumbs, about 50 g
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Lemon zest, to taste
  • EVOO – Extra Virgin Olive Oil, to taste

Method

Preheat the oven to 180 C / 350 F / Gas 4.

Rinse the scallops and gently remove them from their shells.

In a bowl add breadcrumbs, chopped parsley, a pinch of salt and pepper, both lemon and ginger zest, a tablespoon of olive oil and mix. Set aside a bit of grated lemon zest for garnishing.

 

Tip: don’t overdo with ginger, use just a pinch of it otherwise you’ll risk that it will overwhelm scallops’ flavour.

 

Fill each scallop with the mixture by pressing it well to them with your fingers, a drizzle of oil on top before baking and in the preheated oven about 10 minutes.
