Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Scallops

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

2

Heat the Pan

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

3

Sear the Scallops

Add the scallops to the skillet in a single layer, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Sear for about 2-3 minutes on one side until golden brown.

4

Flip and Finish Cooking

Carefully flip the scallops and add the butter and minced garlic to the pan. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, basting the scallops with the melted butter.

5

Add Finishing Touches

Remove the scallops from the pan and place them on a serving plate. Drizzle with lemon juice and sprinkle with fresh parsley.

6

Serve

Serve immediately and enjoy your perfectly seared New Bedford sea scallops!
