Assemble and Serve
Add 1 teaspoon of Old Bay seasoning to the flour mixture for a classic coastal flavor.
For a spicy kick, add 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper to the batter.
For a lighter version, skip the batter. Toss the dry scallops in seasoned flour, spray with oil, and air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway.
If you can't find New England-style buns, a soft brioche roll or potato roll makes a delicious substitute.
Scallops are an excellent source of high-quality, low-fat protein, which is essential for building and repairing tissues, supporting muscle growth, and maintaining a healthy metabolism.
Scallops provide beneficial omega-3 fatty acids, which are known to support heart health by reducing inflammation, lowering blood pressure, and improving cholesterol levels.
They are a good source of Vitamin B12, which is vital for neurological function, DNA synthesis, and the formation of red blood cells, helping to prevent anemia.
Scallops contain important minerals like selenium, zinc, and magnesium, which support immune function, thyroid health, and bone density.
A single Fried Scallop Roll contains approximately 650-750 calories, depending on the size of the scallops and the amount of oil absorbed during frying. This includes the bun and a serving of tartar sauce.
While delicious, a Fried Scallop Roll is an indulgent meal due to being deep-fried. Scallops themselves are a healthy source of lean protein and omega-3s. To make it healthier, consider the air-fryer variation and serve with a side salad instead of fries.
Yes, but the cooking time will be much shorter. Bay scallops are smaller and will cook in about 1-1.5 minutes. Watch them closely to avoid overcooking, which can make them tough.
A neutral oil with a high smoke point is best. Vegetable oil, canola oil, or peanut oil are all excellent choices for deep frying.
The scallops are cooked when the batter is a deep golden brown and the scallops themselves are opaque and firm to the touch. This typically takes 2-3 minutes for large sea scallops.
Fried scallops are best enjoyed immediately after cooking to maintain their crispy texture. Reheating can make them soggy. You can, however, prepare the batter and toast the buns ahead of time to speed up the final assembly.
