You can use any amount of scallops (adjust the seasonings to taste accordingly), as long as they occupy one layer in the dish.
Ingredients:
- 8 large scallops rinsed and patted dry on paper kitchen towels
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp cubed butter
- 4 garlic cloves peeled and either bruised or sliced thinly
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- red chilli flakes to taste; optional
- salt & freshly cracked black pepper to taste
Directions:
- Arrange scallops one layer in an oven-safe dish. Sprinkle garlic powder, salt and pepper over the scallops.
- Scatter garlic & butter; and drizzle olive oil over the scallops.
- Bake at preheated oven of 200°C (392°F) for 10-15 minutes, depending on the thickness of your scallops.

These we’re amazing!! Put them on top of spaghetti with olive oil. My boyfriend said he had never had scallops so good :)
Will frozen scallops work as well? And is there a big difference between frozen and fresh scallops in general?
I’ve always used frozen however you will need to thaw it before cooking. That way you will be able to tell (smelling it) to know if they are good (fresh enough) to be eaten. Especially when cooking for fine dinners. I personally would not suggest over cooking them.
Hi Kelvin, I always use frozen and where I stay, the frozen ones are better (big, fresh and imported from Hokkaido). Thaw them before use.
