Step 1

Marinate the scallops in the marinade for no longer than 20 minutes; longer than this can allow the citric acid in the lemon juice to break down the surface of the scallops and dry them out when cooked.

Step 2

While the scallops are marinating you can also soak 3 or 4 bamboo skewers in water to prepare them for the grill.

Step 3

Push the scallops onto the pre-soaked bamboo skewers. If you like, you can alternate the scallops with pieces of sweet bell peppers and/or red onions.

Step 4

Place the scallop skewers onto a preheated grill on medium heat and grill for only 2 to 3 minutes per side depending on the size of scallops that you are using.
