To grill scallops perfectly, follow these steps: 💁🏻‍♀️

1. Use jumbo scallops because small ones can overcook easily.

2. Always dry the scallops with a paper towel before cooking.

3. Season with salt and pepper just before grilling.

4. Preheat the pan and check its heat by sprinkling water on it – if it runs and disappears, the pan is ready.

5. Add olive oil to the hot pan at medium-high heat.

6. Wait for smoke from the oil as a sign that it's hot enough.

7. Grill one side of each scallop in this hot oil for 1-2 minutes.

8. Flip them over, then turn down to medium heat so they don't overcook (since you started at medium-high).

9. Add butter and herbs (if you have) for extra flavor.

Enjoy your grilled scallops while they are still warm!
