Sea scallops are brushed with clarified butter, garlic, and lemon juice and quickly pan-seared over high heat. "Scallops have a reputation for being hard to cook correctly, but this recipe is really fast, easy, and oh so tasty," says Brian Genest. "The key is high heat for the sear, a good nonstick pan, and clarified butter. Pairs well with risotto."
