Scallops Baked Italian Style

This Scallops Baked Italian Style recipe was developed by my brother-in-law, Sonny.
He was a fabulous chef.  He would make this every Christmas Eve.
It will become a family favorite for you too.

Ingredients;
12oz -16oz sea scallops
2/3 cup Italian flavored bread crumbs
6 TBLS unsalted butter, soft, but not melted
2 cloves of fresh garlic, crushed
1 TSP chopped parsley and a sprinkle
2 TBLS grated Romano cheese
Lemon slices for garnish

Directions;
Preheat oven to 400.
Place scallops in one layer in a lipped baking pan.
Mix all the other ingredients, except the lemon, and spread the paste like mixture over the scallops.
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until they are bubbling and the bread crumb mixture is lightly brown.
