Herb Crusted Scallops

An impressive but very easy to make (and delicious) scallop dish. You'll need to buy whole scallops so you can use the shells as baking dishes.

Interesting! I come from a household that eats very little seafood but i've been interested in branching out. Scallops I certainly like, and this recipe looks promising! thanks and i'll give it a shot.
