1
Pat the scallops dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and pepper.
2
Heat a large non-stick pan with 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of clarified butter on high heat.
3
When the pan is hot, add the scallops and cook for 2 minutes undisturbed to achieve a golden sear.
4
Flip the scallops, add the minced garlic and remaining 2 tablespoons of clarified butter, and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes or until the scallops are completely opaque and cooked through.
5
Remove the scallops from the pan and transfer to a large plate tented with foil to keep them warm.
6
Reduce the heat to low and pour in the 1/4 cup of dry white wine to deglaze the pan, scraping up any brown bits stuck to the bottom of the pan.
7
Stir in the 1 1/2 tablespoons of chopped parsley and cook for another minute to meld the flavors of the garlic-parsley butter sauce.
8
Pour the garlic-parsley butter sauce over the scallops and serve hot.
