Description
Lightly breaded sea scallops cooked in the air fryer with the same results as deep frying, but without the nasty smell or mess!
Ingredients
- ½ cup finely crushed buttery crackers (such as Ritz®)
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 pound sea scallops, patted dry
- 1 serving cooking spray
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 390 degrees F (198 degrees C).
- Mix cracker crumbs
- garlic powder
- and seafood seasoning together in a shallow bowl. Place melted butter in a second shallow bowl.
- Dip each scallop in the melted butter and then roll in the breading until completely coated. Set on a plate and repeat with the remaining scallops.
- Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Arrange scallops in the prepared basket so that they are not touching each other; you may need to work in batches.
- Cook in the preheated air fryer for 2 minutes. Turn scallops over gently with a small spatula and cook until opaque
- about 2 more minutes.
