Seared Scallops in Lemon Butter
When it comes to fresh seafood my advice is this: KISS (Keep it Simple Seafood). Highlight the natural fresh flavor of the fish or seafood by keeping the ingredients simple and natural. I love how properly cooked scallops melt in your mouth. They are nutritious, as well as delicious, averaging 20 grams of protein for every 3 oz serving. It's like a tender steak from the sea! Their mild sweet flavor with that caramelized crust when seared in a super hot pan is sensational. I love the charred lemon as it adds a tangy undertone to the salty sauce. The cast iron skillet achieves the desired brown and crispy edges- you can also use another type of skillet if you don't have one. If you love scallops already, let this be your go-to recipe! If you don't I highly suggest you give these a try!
