Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz boiled baby scallop
- 2 Tbsp unsalted butter, divided
- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
- 2 cloves garlic smashed
- freshly ground black pepper
Garnish:
- 1 scallion, minced
Instructions
- Dry your scallops with some paper towels.
- Heat a large 12” pan over medium-high heat for several minutes.
- Add the butter and garlic and let the butter melt in the pan.
- As soon as the butter has melted, add the scallops to the pan in one layer.
- Sear the bottom side of the scallops for about 1 minute and then flip to sear the other side for another minute.
- Turn off the heat and add the soy sauce.
- Stir the sauce and turn the scallops a couple of times to coat them in the sauce. (The residual heat in the pan will cook off some of the liquid.)
- Transfer to a plate, garnish with scallions, and serve.
