Steps:
- Remove the scallops from the packaging and place them on kitchen paper to ensure they are dry.
- Place the half of the butter (1/4 stick/30 g) and the olive oil into a non stick frying pan and melt over a medium high heat until it is starting to foam.
- Think of the frying pan as a clock and add the scallops to the foaming butter starting at 12 o'clock and then working around clockwise.
- Cook over a medium high heat for 1 1/2 minutes until golden brown.
- Carefully, starting at 12 o'clock again, flip the scallops and cook for a further minute.
- Remove scallops from pan (starting at 12 o'clock again) and place them on a plate near the hob.
- Turn the heat to high and add the wine to the pan.
- Allow this to bubble for a couple of minutes, then reduce the heat and add the saffron.
- Stir well and whisk in the remaining butter (1/4 stick/30 g).
- Once this has melted add the cream and whisk until slightly reduced and thickened.
- Return the scallops to the pan and serve garnished with parsley.

Steps:
- Preheat the broiler. (If possible, position the broiler rack 3 inches from the heat.) Mix the breadcrumbs, 1 tablespoon olive oil, the parsley and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Soak the saffron in a separate small bowl with 1 tablespoon water.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick ovenproof skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high heat. Add the scallops, season with salt and sear until golden, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook 1 more minute; transfer to a plate (do not wipe out the skillet).
- Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in the skillet. Add the onion and carrots, season with salt and cook until the onion is soft, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and paprika and stir until toasted, about 1 minute. Add the wine, scrape up any browned bits and cook until the liquid is almost evaporated, about 1 minute. Stir in 1 1/2 cups water, the saffron and soaking water, and any juices from the plate of scallops. Bring to a simmer and cook until about 1/4 inch of liquid remains, 8 to 10 minutes. Season with salt.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the butter until melted. Return the scallops to the skillet, transfer to the broiler and cook, rotating the skillet as needed, until the scallops are firm, 1 to 2 minutes. Sprinkle the scallops with the breadcrumb mixture and continue to broil until browned, 1 to 2 more minutes, rotating as needed.
