Steps:
- Remove the small side muscle from the scallops, rinse with cold water and thoroughly pat dry.
- Add the butter and oil to a 12 to 14-inch saute pan on high heat. Salt and pepper the scallops. Once the fat begins to smoke, gently add the scallops, making sure they are not touching each other. Sear the scallops for 1 1/2 minutes on each side. The scallops should have a 1/4-inch golden crust on each side while still being translucent in the center. Serve immediately.
QUICK PAN-SEARED SCALLOPS
Steps:
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shallot; cook and stir until lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour in lemon juice and cook until evaporated, scraping the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to release any browned bits, about 3 minutes.
- Place scallops 1/2 inch apart in the skillet. Cook until browned on the bottom, about 1 minute. Flip and continue cooking until the second side is deeply browned, about 1 minute more.
- Transfer scallops to a serving plate; season with salt and pepper. Garnish with parsley.

SAUTéED SCALLOPS
Sea scallops and bay scallops differ in size and sweetness. They also cook a little differently. I love a good hard sear on a sea scallop, a little crust, and a splash of wine in the butter at the end to provide a silky acidity against the sweet of the meat. For the tiny, sweet bay scallop, though, I prefer a gentle butter bath. Whichever you cook, be very careful not to overcook. Indeed, there is almost no such thing as an undercooked scallop.

Steps:
- Place a large sauté pan or skillet over medium-high heat, and add to it 3 tablespoons of the butter. When it has melted and started to foam, place the scallops in the pan in a single layer, and season with a pinch or two of salt.
- Cook scallops without moving until the bottoms are golden brown, approximately 2 to 3 minutes, then turn them over, add the wine and cook an additional 1 to 2 minutes.

- Remove catch muscle if needed. Rinse scallops under cold water and thoroughly pat dry with paper towels or a clean kitchen towel. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat grapeseed oil in a large stainless steel, non-stick, or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Test the pan’s heat by sprinkling a tiny bit of water in it—if the water evaporates on contact, the pan is ready.
- Place scallops in the pan in a single layer, leaving about an inch of space between each one and working in batches if necessary. The first scallop should sizzle on contact with the pan; if not, wait a few seconds for the pan to get hot before adding the rest.
- Cook scallops until golden brown on the bottom, about 2 minutes, then flip using tongs. (If the scallop doesn’t release easily, give it a few extra seconds in the pan.) Add butter, and swirl to coat scallops.
