Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Scallops

    Pat the dayboat scallops dry with a paper towel. Season both sides with salt and black pepper to taste.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Garlic

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

  3. 3

    Cook the Scallops

    Add the scallops to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and opaque. Avoid overcrowding the pan; cook in batches if necessary.

  4. 4

    Finish and Serve

    Remove the scallops from the skillet and drizzle with fresh lemon juice. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.
