Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 lb large scallops, patted dry
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- Salt & pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat Grill: Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat to ensure it’s hot enough to sear the scallops properly.
- Season Scallops: Toss the scallops gently with olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper, ensuring each scallop is evenly coated for maximum flavor.
- Grill Scallops: Place the scallops on the grill, avoiding overcrowding. Grill each side for 2 to 3 minutes until the scallops are opaque and have developed a golden-brown sear.
Notes
- Do not overcrowd the pan or grill to ensure a perfect sear on each scallop.
- Pat scallops dry before seasoning to get a better crust while grilling.
- Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.
