Best Lemon Garlic Scallop Kabobs Recipes
PAN-SEARED LEMON AND GARLIC SCALLOPS
Scallops have a reputation for being hard to cook correctly, but this recipe is really fast, easy, and oh so tasty. The key is high heat for the sear, a good nonstick pan, and clarified butter. Pairs well with risotto.

GARLIC SCALLOP KEBABS
This recipe is from Dr. Jane Pentz, from a book called. "If You Don't Take Care of Your Body, Where Are You Going to Live?" She has some fantastic recipes but this one is really nice. My husband and I will grill these up on the back patio with a glass of wine and have a date night at home...sometimes those are the best nights of all! Enjoy! **The prep time includes marinating time!
