I love the taste of scallops. While fried scallops are awesome, the deep fried-ness takes away from the flavor of the scallops. Parmesan and garlic taste awesome with anything so I decided to try it with my pan seared scallops and it was a delicious combination!
Ingredients:
-1 lb of fresh off the boat sea scallops (If you're going to use frozen, don't bother because they will get watery and dried out)
- 2 tablespoons of butter
-1 tablespoon of minced garlic
-1 tablespoon of fresh grated Parmesan cheese
-5 twists of a sea salt grinder
- fresh parsley for topping
Directions:
In a large frying pan (a large frying pan should fit all of the scallops if they are large enough, if not cut the recipe in half and make 2 batches), melt 2 tablespoons of butter on medium. While that is melting, place the scallops, garlic and sea salt in a bowl and coat well by mixing. Once the butter is melted in the pan, place the scallops in the pan until they are well seared on one side. Flip when they are seared. Once the other side is seared, flip again so that the hot side is facing up. Top with the fresh grated Parmesan cheese and allow it to lightly melt. Place on a plate and garnish with parsley. Easy huh?
