Scallops

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Scallops

    Rinse the scallops under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Season with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Sear the Scallops

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the scallops in a single layer and sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Make the Sauce

    In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium, add the butter and minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in the lemon juice and fresh parsley.

  4. 4

    Combine and Serve

    Return the scallops to the skillet and toss them in the sauce to coat. Serve immediately, pairing with a glass of Sauvignon Blanc.
