An ItalianChristmas always has plenty of seafood (the feast of seven fishes) and this is a classic Venetian style scallop dish. It's ridiculously easy using ingredients that you probably have in your pantry and yet these look spectacular served on the shell. They take just 5 minutes to grill too so they can be made just before serving.

Step 1 - Finely chop the garlic and parsley together and mix with the breadcrumbs and oil. Take the scallops and with a sharp knife slice underneath them to remove them from the shell. Top with the breadcrumb mixture dividing it evenly among the scallops.
Step 2 - Place the scallops on a baking tray and preheat the grill to medium high. Grill for 5 minutes or bake at 180C/350 for 8 minutes and serve with lemon.
