Answer 3

Assuming they are now thawed (if not, do this in cold water). Dry them off, fry in a little olive oil, garlic and chilli, season with a little salt & pepper and a squeeze of lemon and serve. OR, pan fry again with a little bacon or wrap bacon around them and cook like that either in a pan again or in the oven. Remember not to overcook the scallops though.
