Notes

  • Overcooking: Scallops cook quickly and overcooking can cause them to become tough and rubbery, destroying their delicate flavor and texture.
  • Crowding the pan: When scallops are crowded together, they release moisture, preventing them from browning properly. Cook scallops in a single layer with plenty of space between each scallop to get a nice sear.
  • Using too much oil: Too much oil can cause scallops to become greasy and heavy. Use just enough oil to lightly coat the bottom of the pan, or consider using a non-stick pan. Use an oil with a high smoke point, such as canola or grapeseed oil, to prevent burning and maintain the delicate flavor of the scallops.
