About Jumbo sea scallops
Jumbo sea scallops are large, tender shellfish prized in coastal cuisines around the globe, particularly in Mediterranean, Asian, and American dishes. Known for their sweet, buttery flavor and firm texture, these versatile mollusks are an excellent source of lean protein, offering about 20 grams per 3-ounce serving. They’re low in calories and fat while rich in essential nutrients like vitamin B12, magnesium, and omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart health, brain function, and energy production. Scallops also contain antioxidants such as selenium for immune support. When prepared properly—grilled, seared, or baked—they make a heart-healthy addition to many meals. However, diners should take note of sodium levels, which can increase in processed or pre-seasoned options. Avoid heavy sauces or fried preparations to keep them as nutritious as possible. Fresh, responsibly sourced jumbo sea scallops offer both culinary delight and nutritional benefits in a balanced diet.
