12 abalone, prepared

4 ounces butter

2 teaspoons crushed garlic

1 lemon

salt and pepper to taste

Partially melt butter in glass bowl in microwave, about 1 to 2 minutes on medium

power. Add crushed garlic to butter. Cook butter and garlic for another 1 minute

on medium power. Cover bottom of glass dish, such as a pie plate with half of

the butter and garlic. Add prepared abalone meat. Coat abalone with remaining

butter and garlic. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes on medium high power. Flip abalone

and repeat. Do not overcook. The abalone meat will become very firm if

overcooked. Serve on a plate with lemon wedge. Top with melted butter and

garlic. Makes 12.
