Step 1

Preparation of Scallops: Commence by patting the scallops dry using paper towels. This is imperative for achieving an optimal sear. Subsequently, season them lightly with sea salt.

Step 2

Cooking Process: In a large sauté pan or cast iron skillet, heat the olive oil and one tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat. It is crucial to heat the oil and butter until they are near the smoking point but not burning. Carefully add the scallops to the hot pan, ensuring they are not crowded, and sear for approximately 1 1/2 to 2 minutes on each side. The scallops should develop a golden crust. If necessary, cook the scallops in batches to avoid overcrowding. Once cooked, transfer the scallops to a separate plate.

Step 3

Sauce Preparation: Clean the skillet and then add the remaining two tablespoons of butter over low heat. Add the minced garlic to the butter, cooking it until fragrant, which should take about one minute. Next, incorporate the lemon juice into the skillet.

Step 4

Final Cooking Stage: Return the seared scallops to the skillet with the garlic and lemon butter. Gently warm the scallops for 1 to 2 minutes, turning them several times to ensure they are evenly coated in the sauce. Conclude by seasoning the dish with chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper according to taste. Serve the dish promptly for the best culinary experience.
