Baked Scallops
Baked Scallops
Buttery, crispy, garlicky. What could be better? These scallops make for the easiest weeknight dinner and are ready in about 30 minutes. They're great for a last-minute dinner option, but also plenty good enough to serve at a dinner party. That’s the kind of balance we love.
