Grilled Scallops (6 Servings)

How Long To Cook Scallops on The Grill

Ingredients

Scale

Instructions

  1. Start by combining ¼ cup of olive oil, honey, lemon juice, garlic, smoked paprika, and salt in a small bowl.
  2. Whisk it until the honey is completely dissolved, then set it aside.
  3. Go on and place the scallops and marinate them in a large zipper bag, then proceed to refrigerate for 1 hour after that.
  4. If you use wooden skewers, soak them in warm water while the scallops marinate for an hour.
  5. It would help if you preheated the grill to medium-high. Cover the grill to allow the grates to heat up.
  6. Remove the scallops from the refrigerator and thread 4-5 on each skewer, seasoning with salt and pepper.
  7. Apply more oil to the grill grates with a silicone brush.
  8. Skewer the scallops and place them on the grill at an angle (if you want pretty diagonal grill marks).
  9. Scallops should be cooked for 2-3 minutes on each side.
