Baked scallops, a dish that is useful as a starter or appetizer. The scallops can be found all year round, we can find them fresh or frozen, the frozen ones we already have clean and are just as good.
To prepare this dish we only need to have the scallops with the minced garlic and put them in the oven. With the oven we will be careful since if they are done too much they can remain very dry, they need little time.
Once made, you have to consume them, if they get cold they no longer taste the same. That is why they can be prepared and put in the oven at the last minute. They are delicious!!!

Ingredients
- 12 scallops
- 3 cloves of garlic
- 1 lemon
- Olive oil
- Chopped parsley
- Sal Island
- Pepper
Preparation
- To make the scallops in the oven, we will start by cleaning them well, if they are frozen we let them defrost, they are already clean.
- In a blender glass we put a jet of oil, the garlic, the parsley and a jet of lemon juice, we crush it all without leaving it too chopped.
- We put the scallops in a baking dish, they must be flat so they do not tip over.
- A little salt and pepper are added to them.
- Take a tablespoon of the minced garlic and parsley and put it on top of each scallop.
- We put the tray in the center of the oven that we will have previously heated to 200ºC with heat up and down.
- We leave them in the oven for 3-4 minutes and turn off. We see if they are to our liking, we take them out, if not, we leave them in the oven with the heat turned off. They will be finished with the heat of the oven.
- We remove from the oven and if you like you can put a little more of the crushed oil with the garlic and parsley.
- We serve right away.
