Steps:
- Finely chop the chili.
- Peel and finely slice the garlic
- Cut the ginger into thin matchsticks
- Zest the lime and then squeeze the juice out.
- Set these all aside until needed (see note 4)
- Use paper towels to pat the scallops dry. You want to ensure the scallops have no moisture on the surface.
- Place a heavy-based frying pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add 3 tbsp of oil and let it heat until shimmering (at least 1 minute)
- Season the scallops lightly with salt. Then carefully and quickly add the scallops to the frying pan.
- Do them individually, starting at 12 o'clock and working around the outside of the pan.
- Cook the scallops for 90 seconds on one side.
- Turn the heat off under the pan and add 1 tbsp of butter.
- Use tongs to gently turn each scallop over into the sizzling butter, again starting at 12 o'clock and working around in the same order you added the scallops.
- Leave the scallops for 60 seconds, then remove the scallops from the pan and place them on a plate.
- Put the prepared garlic, chili, and ginger into the frying pan and stir to cook in the hot oil and butter.
- Pour in 2 tbsp fish sauce, the squeezed lime juice, and sprinkling over 1/2 tsp of brown sugar.
- Once everything is bubbling (about 1 minute), pour over the scallops, and serve with fresh cilantro and a little lime zest.

Steps:
- Heat butter in pan on high heat until melted and lightly foaming.

- Add lemon slices, chili paste, and stir.
- When scallops are still springy to the touch, but bright white and opaque and browned on both sides, serve and top with sauce.

MISO-GLAZED GRILLED SCALLOPS
This simple and sophisticated treatment is perfect for grilled scallops, but also works well on chicken or pork. One note on preparation: Err on the side of undercooking. Take the scallops off the grill before they're opaque all the way through. If you undercook a scallop, it will still be delicious, but if you overcook it, it will get rubbery.

Steps:
- Heat a charcoal or gas grill until very hot. Brush the grill with a little oil and position the grill grate 3 to 4 inches from the heat.
- Whisk together the miso and mirin or sake; season to taste with pepper.
- Thread the scallops through their equators onto metal or soaked wooden skewers and brush them all over with vegetable oil. Grill scallops until they're browned and release easily from the grill, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
- When they're almost done, brush on both sides with the miso mixture, and continue to cook, turning once or twice, until the glaze caramelizes a bit and the scallops are done. Take the scallops off the grill before the interior becomes totally opaque.
- Sprinkle with sesame seeds and scallions and serve immediately.
