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.

1 to 1 1/4 pounds dry sea scallops, approximately 16
2 teaspoons unsalted butter
2 teaspoons olive oil
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper

  • Garlicky Buttery Scallops. This basic seared scallop recipe lets fresh seafood shine in a simple garlic butter sauce. To achieve a truly golden crust, cook the scallops primarily on one side over medium-high heat and try not to move them around, then flip and kiss the other side with just a touch of heat.
  • Grilled Scallops With Nori, Ginger, and Lime. Served with lime mayo, these nori-and-spice-rubbed scallops gain a smoky dimension from the grill. Aleppo-style pepper flakes bring warm depth without adding too much heat.
  • Seared Scallops With Red Chile Paste and Fennel Salad. Sear these scallops on only one side to preserve the meltingly tender, near-raw texture on the other end.
  • Grilled Scallops With Peach Sweet Chili Sauce. Inspired by the grilled fish-ball skewers found on the streets of Bangkok, this recipe pairs grilled, lightly smoky scallops with a tangy peach and chili sauce.
  • Scallops With Red Aguachile and Pickled Onions. This recipe from former guest editor Marcus Samuelsson accents thinly sliced raw scallops with fiery aguachile, cooling cucumber, and zingy pickled onions.
