Step 1
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Pat the 12 scallops dry and arrange them in a single layer in a lightly oiled baking dish.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, 1/4 cup grated parmesan, 2 tbsp chopped parsley, 1 minced garlic clove, and 2 tbsp olive oil until well combined.
Step 3
Spoon the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the scallops, pressing gently to adhere.
Step 4
Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the topping is golden brown and the scallops are opaque and just firm to the touch.
Step 5
Serve immediately, garnished with extra parsley if desired.
