Baked Scallops

INGREDIENTS

4 Tablespoons Butter

2 Minced Garlic Cloves

3 Tablespoons White Wine

1/4 Cup Cracker Crumbs

1 1/2 Pounds Scallops

Preheat your oven to 450° F. In a small size saucepan melt the butter and add the minced garlic.  Cook for 1 minute.  In a shallow glass or ceramic baking dish place the scallops.  Make sure you pat them dry with a paper towel.  Pour the melted butter and garlic mixture over the top of the scallops.  Sprinkle with the white wine and then top with the cracker crumbs.  Place in the oven for 8 minutes until the scallops are firm and opaque in color.  You don’t want to overcook them however.  Remove from the oven and let cool for a minute before serving.  Serves 4
