    What are the temps that each recipe cooks at?

    Given you can eat them raw and it is a crime to over-cook, shorter at a high heat is better.

    I'd give them maybe 2 mins one side, one min other side in a pan on high heat basted with butter, and then finished for 4-5 mins in an oven at 150c.

      I was with you until you said to flip them…. they're scallops on the shell!

      added the temps.

      hmmm, remove them from shells for pan fry then put them back on shells for oven ?

  • when i was a chef i hated people asking me how long it takes to cook things.

    cook it until it's cooked.

    you have several things t consider weight, size temp.

    i would choose D. ALL OF THE ABOVE ARE INCORRECT

    you just need to seal them in a pan briefly.

    • This (although not a chef).

      Remove them and clean the shells, sear them in butter and garnish. Baked scallops sound disgusting TBH

  • Put one in at 240 degrees, take it out at 3 mins, see if it's done. If not, put it back another 7 mins, etc. It's fast enough you can literally see for yourself how long you like it cooked.

    Depends on which recipe you're going to make.

    3rd one takes longer because its mixed with a load of bread crumbs.

    don't stack them on top of one another.. they will take longer to cook…

  • Depends - Are you planning on impressing a girl or potential-future-significant-other?

  • take scallops out of shell, bash them flat & cook them on the barbie
