How To Sear Scallops (super easy and 10 minutes)

Searing juicy perfect scallops is crazy easy to do and much cheaper then ordering in a restaurant!

Think back to that time you thought something was hard to do but to your surprise it was actually crazy easy. This happens all the time with our goals and dreams. Scallops are probably the best cooking metaphor for this! They are probably the thing people are most scared to cook (besides souffle)! But they are incredibly easy!  Be inspired by this post to pick a dream you are scared to start (because its hard) and take the first step. Make these and declare that I will not be afraid of my dreams!!!!
This is also dedicated to my husband Tom. He loves scallop but wont order in a restaurant. He says they are to expensive and only give 3 on a plate. So making at home is a bonus because they are much cheaper and you can put double the portion on the plate! Happy Cooking and cheers to you!
