Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Scallops

    In a bowl, combine soy sauce, mirin, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger to create the marinade. Add the fresh scallops to the marinade and let them soak for at least 15 minutes.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Sear the Scallops

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated scallops to the skillet. Sear them for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and cooked through. Avoid overcrowding the skillet; cook in batches if necessary.

Serving

  1. 3

    Plate the Dish

    Once the scallops are cooked, transfer them to a serving plate. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds. Serve with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the scallops.
