- 2 tablespoons olive oil or unsalted butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup dry white wine (like Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio)
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (for the sauce)
- Optional: Fresh parsley and lemon zest for garnish
👨🍳 Instructions
1. Prep the Scallops
- Pat scallops dry with paper towels. Moisture is the enemy of a good sear!
- Season both sides lightly with salt and pepper.
2. Sear the Scallops
- Heat oil or butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- When hot, add scallops (don’t overcrowd) and sear for 1.5–2 minutes per side, until a golden crust forms.
- Remove from skillet and set aside (they’ll finish cooking from residual heat).
