What Takes Longer To Cook Shrimp Or Scallops?
It depends on the method of cooking and the size of the shrimp and scallops. Generally, shrimp takes less time to cook than scallops because they are smaller and thinner. However, if the scallops are also small and thinly sliced, they may take the same amount of time or even less to cook than shrimp. It is important to cook both shrimp and scallops just until they turn opaque and firm, as overcooking can make them tough and rubbery.
