Time 20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound sea scallops, patted dry
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 ½ tablespoons olive oil
¼ cup minced shallots
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup dry white wine
3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Season scallops with salt and pepper.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add scallops and sear until browned on the bottom and moisture appears on the top, about 2 minutes. Flip and sear for 2 minutes on the other side.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Add shallots and garlic; stir until shallots are lightly browned, about 2 minutes, being careful not to burn the garlic. Add wine and stir until the liquid starts to reduce, 1 to 2 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
