Tips:

  • Use large, dry scallops for the best results. Pat them dry with paper towels before searing to prevent splattering.
  • Sear the scallops in a hot skillet with a little oil or butter. Don't overcrowd the pan, or the scallops will steam instead of sear.
  • Cook the scallops for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and opaque throughout. Don't overcook them, or they will become tough.
  • Make the creamy noodles while the scallops are searing. This will help to ensure that both the scallops and the noodles are cooked perfectly.
  • Add the peas to the noodles at the end of the cooking time. This will help to preserve their bright green color.
  • Serve the seared scallops over the creamy noodles and peas immediately. Garnish with fresh parsley or chives.
