Seared Scallops Recipe By Tasty

Steps:

• Remove the small side muscle from the scallops, rinse with cold water and thoroughly pat dry.
• Add the butter and oil to a 12 to 14-inch saute pan on high heat. Salt and pepper the scallops. Once the fat begins to smoke, gently add the scallops, making sure they are not touching each other. Sear the scallops for 1 1/2 minutes on each side. The scallops should have a 1/4-inch golden crust on each side while still being translucent in the center. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Pat the scallops dry with a paper towel.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• In a large skillet set over medium-high heat, add the oil.
• When the oil is hot, add the scallops and cook until golden brown on one side, 2-3 minutes.
• Gently turn the scallops, and add the butter and garlic to the pan.
• Continue to cook, spooning the butter over the scallops until they are cooked through, about 3 minutes more.
• Add the white wine, cook another 10 seconds.
• Serve with chives.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Pat sea scallops dry with paper towels. Season with some lemon juice, salt, and pepper on one side.
• Heat olive oil and butter in a skillet over high heat. Place scallops in the skillet seasoned-side down. Cook until browned on the bottom, about 2 minutes. Season with remaining lemon juice, salt, and pepper; flip. Continue cooking until opaque, about 2 minutes more. Garnish with lemon zest.

Steps:

• Season the scallops on both sides with salt and pepper.
• In a large skillet, melt together 1 tablespoon butter and the olive oil over high heat. When the butter has melted, add the scallops to the pan and sear, flipping once halfway through, until golden brown on both sides and nearly opaque all the way through, 3-4 minutes total. Divide the scallops between 2 plates and return the skillet to medium-high heat.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in the skillet. Add the shallots and garlic. Cook, stirring, until softened and lightly browned, about 2 minutes.
• Stir in the capers and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in the wine and cook, stirring, until slightly reduced, about 3 minutes.
• Remove the skillet from the heat and add the remaining tablespoon of butter, swirling the pan until it melts into the sauce. Season the sauce with salt and pepper, then spoon it over the scallops. Serve hot.
• Enjoy!
