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.

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.

PAN SEARED SCALLOPS
I found this recipe in my weekly grocery circular. I love it because it is quick to cook and I normally have all the ingredients on hand minus the fresh Sea Scallops. I made this last night for supper and both my husband and I thought it was delicious! I did substitute Montreal steak seasoning for the blackened steak seasoning because that is what I had on hand.

- 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.
