Gluten Free Deep Fried Sea Scallops With Dill Lemon Tartar Sauce

No worries my Gluten Free Friends you CAN have Fried Sea Scallops!

Yes! yes !yes! Is what I was yelling out loud as I jumped  around in my kitchen praising my culinary  genius, you see I have been trying to go 100% gluten free well, 98.7% gluten free, but I have many friends that NEED to be 100% gluten free, and immedietly think of  all those doughy, fried , coated , bake , gooey goods no longer wil dance on thier pallets giving them that "mmmmmm"  moment with foods ...So the mission was born , starting with this was  extremley easy recipie  for Fried Sea Scallops ......

Shopping List: 1lb Sea Scallops,eggs, 1 lemon , 1 box of King Aurthur  or any Gluten Free  product such as Pamela's pancake  mix I did 2 batches and they were both amazing.Vegetable  Oil, mayo &  dill relish 

Tools: Zester, large pot, metal slotted spoon

In a large sauce pan add oil leaving about 2-3 inches from the top turn on med high give the oil plenty of time to come up to temp, you can test how hot it is by gently dropping a few pinches of flour , you should hear it bubble that is when we are ready!This is a standard  breading proceedure (egg bath _ flour _)  season scallops with salt and pepper and lemon zest  dip in egg wash,  coat with flour mix, re-egg,  re-coat ,  gently drop in hot oil turning frequently for about 4 min or golden brown after pulling from the oil season with salt I used Pink Sea SaltFor the Sauce I used mayo, dill relish , and a few dashes of cayenne pepper , mix well 

I served these on a Bed of Mixed field greens and a slice of lemon this was such an amazing dish , I can not wait to share this with all my GF friends out there!!! Enjoy !!
