Broiled Scallops with Sweet Lime Sauce

Ingredients
Original


4 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons lime juice
2 tablespoons oil
4 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 pounds bay or sea scallops
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons grated lime peel
1 lime, cut into wedges

Modified
4 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon oil
omit butter
1 pound bay or sea scallops

2 teaspoons grated lime peel
1 lime, cut into wedges

Directions
In a large bowl mix together honey, lime juice and oil. Rinse and then dry the scallops between paper towels. Add them to the bowl. Stir gently to coat with the honey mixture. Turn on the broiler to high. Cover the broiler pan or cookie sheet with aluminum foil. Spray generously with non-stick spray. Arrange the scallops in a single layer. Broil until opaque - about 5 minutes. Turn scallops over and broil another minute. Transfer to warmed plates. Pour any juices over the scallops. Sprinkle with grated lime peel and serve with a lime wedge.
