Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons olive oil (preferably extra-virgin)
2 large garlic cloves, pressed
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano or 1 1/2 teaspoons dried
12 large sea scallops
1 large lemon, halved lengthwise, each half cut crosswise into 6 slices
8 bay leaves
4 8-to 10-inch bamboo skewers, soaked in water 30 minutes

Steps:

  • Whisk 2 tablespoons olive oil, pressed garlic cloves and oregano in medium bowl to blend. Season with salt and pepper. Add sea scallops and toss to coat with oil mixture.
  • Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat) or preheat broiler. Alternate 3 scallops, 3 lemon slices and 2 bay leaves on each skewer. Grill or broil brochettes until scallops are golden brown and just cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to plates and serve.
