Scrumptious garlic scallops recipe, seared to perfection in a cast iron pan and cooked in a healthy clarified butter for the ultimate seafood meal!
Are you ready for the perfect garlic scallops of your life ?
Initially I planned to make some shrimp, but could not find any wild caught ones at the market, so I grabbed some large wild scallops instead.
Lucky me, I also had all that clarified butter /Ghee from the other day, so really, the Universe aligned itself to make this happen.
Healthy scallops, you don’t even have to worry about eating too much!
