Perfect Pan Seared Sea Scallops Recipe + Lemon Chive Butter

If you love seafood, then you will absolutely love this panseared sea scallops recipe that cooks in under 5 minutes. Scallops are bivalve mollusk that is a muscle that is encapsulated into two shells. Its in the same family as a mussel, clam, or oyster. Scallops are most commonly sold shucked with the foot attached. The foot is what attaches the scallop to the shell, and I advise removing it because it can be chewy once cooked. Ingredients for this recipe: 8 ounces softened unsalted butter + 2 tablespoons peeled and finely minced shallot 2 finely minced cloves of garlic 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives 2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme cup chopped fresh parsley juice and zest of 1 lemon 1 pound U12 sea scallops, foot removed 2 tablespoons oil 1, 3 cup white wine sea salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste Serves 4 Prep Time: 10 minutes Cook Time: 5 minutes Procedures: 1.
