Scallops and Sauce

Method

Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Scallops

Pat the scallops dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Season with salt and pepper on both sides.

2

Heat the Pan

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

3

Sear the Scallops

Add the scallops to the skillet in a single layer. Sear for about 2-3 minutes without moving them until they are golden brown. Flip and sear the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes until cooked through.

4

Add Garlic and Butter

Lower the heat and add the butter and minced garlic to the pan. Cook for about 1 minute, allowing the garlic to become fragrant.

5

Finish with Lemon and Parsley

Remove the pan from heat and stir in the lemon juice and chopped parsley.

6

Serve

Plate the scallops and drizzle the garlic butter sauce over the top. Serve immediately.
