For the past week I've had a powerful desire for these little medallions of happiness. Here's what you'll need for the most awesome plate of pan seared scallops.

1 Plate full of scallops(Use sea scallops because bay scallops suck ass)
1/4 cup of olive oil
Fresh Ground Pepper
Minced Garlic
Salt
Tyhme

Pour the oil in a medium mixing bowl, dump in some garlic, ground pepper, a few pinches of salt, and a few pinches of tyhme.



Mix that shit up with a fork


Dump the plate of scallops into the goo. My precious goooo!


Fold them gently into the goo and let set for about 20 minutes


Throw the hole mixture onto a medium hot pan with a light coating of oil on it.

Flip em over after about a minute or two. They should be slightly toasted on the bottom.

Let em cook for a about a minute more and then spoon them onto a plate and enjoy.


Here you have a load of options. You can either just eat em plain, with pasta, vegies, or whatever. I pan fried some noodles and cashews in the left over herbs and oil and dumped the scallops on top. That's how you make some damn fine scallops.
