BEST SCALLOPS RECIPE with Lemon Garlic Butter Sauce!

Video Description

These pan seared scallops make for the best special dinner at home. They're perfectly tender, finished in a simple lemon garlic butter sauce, and way easier than most people think. Scallops are seriously one of the easiest recipes to make at home, and yet, they also intimidate a ton of people. Perhaps it's because they're a pricey main dish, like prime rib or beef tenderloin (but of the seafood variety). But here's the big takeaway to remember—scallops don’t need much to shine! Just good butter, a little garlic, and some fresh lemon enhances their naturally sweet and delicate flavor. I also love how they present so beautifully on a dinner plate. Similar to shrimp scampi, they're an elegant, restaurant-worthy meal that's super easy to serve at home. My mom adores this scallops recipe (and requests it for every birthday) and I think you'll love it as well! 🖨 Printable Scallops Recipe: https://downshiftology.com/recipes/pan-seared-scallops-lemon-garlic-butter/ Sign up for weekly emails (never miss a recipe!): https://mailchi.mp/downshiftology/youtube/ Join the private Facebook group of fellow Downshifters around the world: https://www.facebook.com/groups/downshiftologycommunity/ ► ORDER MY COOKBOOK!!!
