Sauté the Vegetables
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the zucchini and red bell pepper, and cook for 5 minutes until they start to soften. Add the cherry tomatoes, salt, and black pepper, and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the tomatoes begin to blister. Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set aside.

Cook the Scallops
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Pat the scallops dry with a paper towel and season with salt and black pepper. When the oil is hot, add the scallops to the skillet. Sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
