Tender pan-seared scallops are simple to make and delightful to eat. These scallops only require five ingredients, and are best served with a side of your choosing (we love risotto, pasta, or grilled asparagus to name a few).

Wow! These were the best scallops I've ever had. The Parmesan crust was so crispy and the scallops were cooked to perfection.

I thought the scallops were a bit bland. I'll try adding some more herbs and spices next time.

The scallops were a bit overcooked for my taste, but the Parmesan crust was spot-on.

These scallops were incredible! The Parmesan crust was crispy and flavorful, and the scallops were cooked perfectly. I served them over a bed of linguine with a white wine sauce, and it was a hit with my family.
