1
Pat the scallops dry with a paper towel and season with black pepper and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt.
2
In a large non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat.
3
Add asparagus to the skillet and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
4
In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat.
5
Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds or until fragrant.
6
Place the scallops in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until nicely browned and just cooked through. Transfer to a plate as they finish cooking.
7
Add the dry white wine and white wine vinegar to the skillet, scraping up any browned bits. Simmer until the sauce has reduced to about 1/4 cup, about 4 minutes.
8
Lower the heat and whisk in the unsalted butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, until well-incorporated.
9
Stir in the lemon juice, lemon zest, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
10
Return the asparagus and scallops to the skillet, gently tossing to coat with the sauce.
11
Serve the scallops and asparagus on plates, drizzling with any remaining sauce in the skillet.
