A quick, easy technique for perfectly seared scallops. Ge the tip: http://chfstps.co/1Hkn7vt

Funny thing, scallops. Diners the world over think nothing of dropping $35 for a couple of these tender mollusks served atop a basic bed of vegetables. And yet, a lot of home cooks avoid them due to the misguided notion that perfectly prepared scallops are the exclusive domain of the pros. Sorry, expensive restaurants. We're here to spill the beans with a searing technique that makes it stupidly quick and easy for anyone to achieve a rich, buttery scallop with a crisp, delicious crust. All that's required of you: a hot pan, a little oil, and a modicum of self control. A modicum, people. That's not very much. http://chfstps.co/1Hkn7vt
