Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lb bay scallops or 1 lb sea scallops
2 teaspoons lime zest
1 lime, cut into 4 wedges

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler. Position the rack to 4 inches from the heat. Line a cookie sheet with foil, and spray it with cooking spray. Rinse the scallops and pat dry.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the honey, lime juice and oil.
  • Add the scallops and toss gently to coat.
  • Arrange the scallops in a single layer on the cookie sheet. Broil until opaque, about 5 minutes. Turn the scallops over and broil for another minute.
  • Divide the scallops onto plates, and spoon leftover juices from the cookie sheet over them. Sprinkle with grated lime peel, and serve with a lime wedge.
