Breaded and Fried Scallops
I love scallops, and I wanted to try them fried but had limited ingredients. This was super easy and delicious. I started to make it all the time.
Italian-season bread crumbs, or more to taste
1
cup
salt and ground black pepper to taste
egg
1
bay scallops, or more to taste
½
cup
butter
2
tablespoons
olive oil
1
tablespoon
lemon juice
1 ½
teaspoons
 Mix bread crumbs, salt, and pepper in a resealable plastic bag.
  Whisk egg lightly in a bowl. Dip scallops in egg; place in the bread crumb mixture in the bag. Seal bag and shake until scallops are coated with bread crumbs.
  Bring butter, olive oil, and lemon juice to a simmer in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add breaded scallops; cook, shaking skillet occasionally, until browned, 6 to 7 minutes.
