Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9 inch pie plate.
Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil. Rinse the scallops, and drop them into the boiling water; cook for 2 minutes.
Remove the scallops with a slotted spoon, and pat dry.
Place on the bottom of the prepared pie plate.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter, and stir in the flour. Cook over low heat for 3 minutes.
Whisk in heavy cream and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly, or until thick.
Squeeze the spinach dry, and spread over the scallops.
Pour the cream sauce over the spinach, and top with mozzarella cheese, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, and bread crumbs.
Sprinkle Old Bay Seasoning over the bread crumbs.
Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until browned and bubbly.
Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, Pinot Noir
Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, and Pinot Noir are my top picks for Scallops. Chardonnay and chenin blanc are great matches for grilled or seared scallops. If your scallops are being matched with bacon or other cured meats, try a lightly chilled pinot noir. The Lapis Luna Chardonnay with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 13 dollars per bottle.
