Scallops

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Scallops

    Rinse the sea scallops under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Ensure they are completely dry to achieve a good sear. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Sear the Scallops

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the scallops to the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Sear the scallops for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they develop a golden brown crust. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.

  2. 3

    Add Flavor

    In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter and minced garlic. Cook until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

  3. 4

    Finish the Dish

    Return the scallops to the skillet and toss them in the garlic butter sauce for about 30 seconds. Remove from heat and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
