1
Prepare the Scallops
Rinse the scallops under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. This will help them sear better.
2
Season the Scallops
In a bowl, combine the scallops with olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Toss gently to coat the scallops evenly.
3
Heat the Pan
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add a little olive oil. Allow the oil to get hot but not smoking.
4
Sear the Scallops
Place the scallops in the pan in a single layer. Sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and opaque in the center.
5
Garnish and Serve
Remove the scallops from the pan and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley. Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
