    20 to 30 (or 8 ounces) sea scallops (side muscle removed)

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

    Place scallops in an individual size baking dish. Pour in vermouth. Sprinkle pinch of Tri-Mix over scallops. Place on top shelf of oven for about 5 minutes. Scallops should be about half way done, just starting to turn the more solid white. Spread Seafood Crumbs evenly over the top and replace in oven for 3 minutes. Crumbs should be turning a nice golden brown. Top with Garlic Butter and replace in oven for 1 minute. The compound butter should just be starting to melt, leaving a nice creamy effect. Top with scallions and serve.
