    How to Make Golden Seared Scallops with White Wine Butter Sauce

    1. Prep and Heat Pan

    Place a large sauté pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter and heat until the butter melts and starts to foam.

    2. Sear Scallops

    Lay the scallops in the pan in a single layer. Season with a pinch or two of kosher salt. Cook without moving the scallops until the bottoms are golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes.

    3. Flip and Flavor

    Turn the scallops over. Immediately add 1 tablespoon of dry white vermouth or white wine to the pan. Let the scallops cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes, allowing the wine to create a flavorful sauce.

    4. Garnish and Serve

    Remove the pan from heat. Sprinkle the seared scallops with finely chopped parsley for an elegant garnish before serving.
