Ingredients
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 lb scallops large, dried well
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a heavy nonstick pan, heat butter until frothy.
- Make sure pan is very hot.
- Pat scallops dry and generously season with salt and pepper.
- Lay down in hot pan, and let sear on one side for 3 minutes.
- Flip to the other side for an additional 3 minutes.
- Scallop should be opaque throughout, and the slight pink color should be gone. It will still be springy- not too firm. Do not overcook.
- Serve immediately.
