Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Scallops

    Rinse the scallops under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Cook the Scallops

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the scallops in a single layer, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and opaque in the center.

  2. 3

    Add Flavor

    Once cooked, remove the scallops from the skillet and add lemon juice to the pan, scraping up any browned bits. Stir in the chopped parsley and pour over the scallops before serving.
