Searing the Scallops
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the scallops to the skillet in a single layer, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Sear the scallops for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and opaque in the center.

Adding Flavor
Reduce the heat to medium and add the unsalted butter and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, spooning the melted butter over the scallops to enhance the flavor.
