Ingredients

  • 500 g – 1 lb scallops (– cleaned (I used Ferguson’s roe-on meat scallops))
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 3 cloves garlic (– minced)
  • salt and pepper (– to taste)
  • 1 tbsp parsley (– chopped)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Rinse the scallops with cold water and pat dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Heat up a skillet on medium to high heat. Add the olive oil and butter.

  3. 3

    Sauté the garlic for a few seconds.

  4. 4

    Add the scallops and pan-sear them for about one and a half minutes per side (cooking time may vary depending on the size of your scallops; aim for a golden crust with a slightly translucent centre). Season with salt and remove from the heat.
