Ingredients

  1 pound(s) uncooked scallop(s), wash and dried   
1/4 tsp table salt   
1/4 tsp black pepper, reshly ground   
1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil   
1/4 cup(s) uncooked shallot(s)   
2 clove(s) (medium) garlic clove(s), minced (or to taste)   
1/2 cup(s) white wine   
3 Tbsp fresh parsley, fresh, minced (or to taste)   

Instructions

  • Season scallops with salt and pepper.

  • Place a large skillet over medium-high heat; add oil. When oil shimmers, add scallops to pan, flat-side down; cook until just browned on bottom and you can see moisture appearing on top of scallops, about 2 minutes. Flip scallops and brown on other side, about 1 minute; reduce heat to medium.

  • Add shallots and garlic to skillet; cook, stirring frequently, until shallots are lightly browned, about 2 minutes (be careful not to burn garlic). Add wine; stir and cook until liquid starts to reduce, about 1 to 2 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley; serve. Yields about 4 ounces scallops per serving.

This recipe was simple to prepare, and tasted delicious. Amazingly complex flavor for such simple ingredients. I served it with grilled asparagus, and it was terrific. Will definitely make this again.

Nice flavor and easy to make but clearly needs a side to go with it. I'll make it again.

Just delicious and so easy to prepare; I used bay scallops that were half size or so and the dish cookied a bit quicker. I served w/vegetables and lentils for a great and filling meal.
