Prepare the Scallops

Pat the jumbo sea scallops dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

Cook the Scallops

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add scallops and sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove scallops from the skillet and set aside.

3

Prepare the Sauce

In a small bowl, mix together Thai chili sauce, fresh lime juice, minced garlic, and chopped cilantro until well combined.

4

Serve

Place the seared scallops on a serving platter and drizzle with the sweet Thai chili sauce. Garnish with additional cilantro if desired.
