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:
- Place the scallops on a large plate lined with a paper towel and pat dry. Combine the lime juice, shallot, chili sauce, fish sauce and 1/4 cup vegetable oil in a large bowl; whisk to combine. Add the cabbage, cucumbers, radishes, apple and basil to the dressing and toss well to coat.
- Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add the scallops in an even layer (do not crowd the pan). Cook, undisturbed, until a golden crust forms on the bottom of the scallops, about 3 minutes. Flip the scallops (they should release easily from the pan; if they stick, cook 1 more minute). Cook until lightly browned on the other side, about 2 minutes.
- Divide the cabbage salad among plates and add the scallops. Top with the peanuts and serve with lime wedges.
