Grilled Scallops

Step 1

Preheat your grill to Medium-High heat (around 450 degrees F).

Step 2

Remove the scallops from their packaging and place them on a baking sheet lined with a paper towel. Pat the top of each scallop dry with another paper towel.

Step 3

Combine all ingredients for the lemon herb dressing in a bowl until well mixed and set aside.

Step 4

Season the scallops with kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper on one side. Brush the top of the grill grates with a paper towel soaked in avocado oil. Immediately placed the scallops seasoned side down on the grill grates.

Step 5

Close the lid, and grill the scallops for 4 minutes. Open the lid, flip the scallops (I recommend using a thin fish spatula instead of tongs), and cook for an additional 2 minutes with the lid closed.

Step 6

Remove from the grill when the scallops reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees F. Remove your scallops to a serving plate, drizzle with the lemon herb dressing, and serve with additional lemon wedges.
