  3. Now add mint, olive oil and stir.
  4. Finally, serve with a bunch of scallops on top!
Seared Scallops Instructions:
  1. First, pat dry scallops with paper towel. 
  2. Next, salt and pepper both sides. 
  3. Now, in preheated medium high pan with 3 tablespoons of oil place scallops in pan.

  6. Finally, (optional) add lemon.
