  • 28 sea scallops
  • 1/2 cup butter or margarine
  • 7 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 5 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder

DIRECTIONS

  1. Place shrimp and scallops in a large resealable plastic bag. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder and paprika. Microwave at 50% power for 1-1/2 minutes or until butter is melted. Stir to blend; set aside 1/3 cup for basting. Pour remaining marinade over shrimp and scallops.
