- 1 teaspoon lemon zest finely grated
- ⅓ teaspoon flaked sea salt
- ⅓ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or melted butter plus more to serve
- 1 teaspoon fresh parsley finely chopped
Instructions
- Preheat Air Fryer to 400 F and spray the basket with olive oil.
- Discard any tough muscles or roes if using scallops with the roe attached. Pat scallops dry with kitchen paper.
- Mix lemon zest, pepper, salt and paprika in a bowl. Sprinkle over scallops and then toss with olive oil until fully coated.
- Place scallops in the Air fryer basket and cook for 6 - 8 minutes (depending on the size of your scallops), flipping after 4 minutes, or until cooked to your liking.
- Drizzle scallops with olive oil or more melted butter to serve and sprinkle with fresh parsley.
- Option to serve with a squeeze of lemon if you like. A drizzle of Truffle oil is also really good with these too!
