Steps:
- In a small bowl, mash together the butter, lemon juice, garlic, thyme, and parsley. (The lemon juice may not fully incorporate, which is fine.) Set aside.
- Pat the scallops dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
- Heat olive oil in a medium cast iron skillet over medium-high heat, until shimmering. Keep the garlic herb butter nearby.
- Add the scallops in a single layer, without touching. Sear, without moving, for 2-3 minutes, until a crust forms on the bottom.
- Flip the scallops and immediately add the garlic herb butter to the pan around the scallops in pieces. Sear the scallops for 2-3 more minutes, basting them with the butter occasionally, until a crust forms on the other side and scallops are cooked through.

EASY AND ELEGANT SEA SCALLOPS
I found this recipe on the wrapper of a package of scallops I had just purchased. It sounds really good and something quick to make. I usually only have scallops when people are coming to dinner, and this will make the main course a breeze to prepare.
