Lemon Garlic Butter Scallops
In this healthy scallop recipe, lemon brightens up sweet scallops. Serve the lemon-garlic butter scallops alongside sautéed spinach with a piece of toasted whole-grain bread to sop up the buttery sauce.
Ingredients:
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
- 1 pound sea scallops, tough side muscle removed, patted dry
- ¼ teaspoon ground pepper
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice, plus wedges for serving
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Directions:
- Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle scallops with pepper and salt; cook until golden brown on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Flip scallops and add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and garlic. Continue cooking, spooning the liquid over the scallops, until browned on the bottom and just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice and parsley. Serve with lemon wedges.
