Simple Seared Scallops image

Pan seared scallops with balsamic white wine sauce. As is from Cooking Light September 2002. I usually add either a touch of thyme or some penzey's mural of flavor at the end to liven up the sauce.

I've been cooking for years and this is one of my favorite scallop recipes. The scallops are always cooked perfectly and the lemon butter sauce is amazing.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The scallops were cooked well, but the lemon butter sauce was a bit too rich for my taste.

I followed the recipe exactly and the scallops were overcooked. I think I'll cook them for a shorter amount of time next time.

This recipe was a bit too bland for me. I think I'll add some garlic and herbs next time.

These scallops were cooked to perfection! They were seared on the outside and cooked through but still tender on the inside. The lemon butter sauce was also delicious and really complemented the scallops.
