  • Now add mint, olive oil and stir.
  • Finally, serve with a bunch of scallops on top!

Seared Scallops Instructions:

  • First, pat dry scallops with paper towel. 
  • Next, salt and pepper both sides. 
  • Now, in preheated medium high pan with 3 tablespoons of oil place scallops in pan. 
  • NOTE: do not have scallops touch (or will steam instead of sear). Spread them out and work in batches if pan is small.
  • Next, let scallops sear without moving 3 minutes then turn and cook 3 more minutes without touching. 
  • Finally, (optional) add lemon.
