I experimented with some ways to cook scallops one night with my family. This was everyone's favorite and it has become a regular dish at our family fry nights. If serving as a main dish, make twice as many servings as people (about 8 scallops per person).

Immerse 4 or 5 scallops in the bowl of buttermilk.

Transfer to the flour mixture; roll around until thickly coated.

Lower scallops gently into the hot oil.

Cook until golden and crispy, 3 to 4 minutes.

Drain on a plate lined with paper towels.

Repeat with remaining scallops.
