Cooking shellfish can feel intimidating, so we suggest starting small—and by small, we also mean jumbo! Simply season these oversized scallops with salt and pepper, then sear ‘em in a pan until caramelized on the outside and juicy in the center. Once they’re sizzling, you’re just a few minutes away from a protein-packed dinner with a five-star restaurant vibe. Scallops on a weeknight? NBD. Nutrition values are representative of a 8oz serving.

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.
