Pan-Seared Sea Scallops

Serves: 4

INGREDIENTS

  • 16 sea scallops
  • Fairway sea salt
  • Fairway black pepper
  • 1 stick cold, unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
  • 1 tablespoon Fairway grapeseed oil
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • 1 tablespoon flat leaf parsley

DIRECTIONS

  1. Season the scallops with the salt and pepper.
  2. Over medium heat, warm up a heavy, large, stainless-steel pan, then add 1 tablespoon of butter and the tablespoon of grapeseed oil.
  3. Add the scallops (be sure to not crowd them), and don't touch them until they form a crust on the bottom. Then flip them.
  4. Once the other side of the scallops forms a crust, place them in a 450-degree oven for five minutes.
  5. Melt the rest of the butter in a separate pan on your stove, then add the lemon juice and parsley, and stir.
  6. When the scallops are ready, take them out of the oven, plate, add the butter sauce, then serve.
