Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Clean the Scallops

    Rinse the scallops under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Remove any side muscles if attached.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Scallops

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Add the scallops and toss gently to coat. Let marinate for 15 minutes.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Heat the Pan

    In a large non-stick skillet, heat over medium-high heat. Allow the pan to get hot but not smoking.

  2. 4

    Sear the Scallops

    Add the marinated scallops to the hot skillet. Sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and opaque in the center.

  3. 5

    Finish with Parsley

    Once cooked, remove the scallops from the pan and sprinkle with chopped parsley for garnish.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the Dish

    Arrange the scallops on a serving plate, garnishing with microgreens and lemon wedges if desired. Serve immediately.
