Deglazed the pan with the scallop 'milk' and a splash of white wine.

As the saying goes, it didn't suck! wink
Excellent!
looks edible. smile
Mike, looks good!

That reminds me of a funny thing my kids did a few weeks back. My daughter wanted to make pad thai and the recipe called for shallots. She went shopping with my son some how he brought home scallops.
My peanut butter lunch sammich certainly pales in comparison to that.
Hard to be certain, but scallops are about my favorite food... those look very "doable" I must say.

I made ya proud artsy. wink

A little scorch on the outside with a little translucency in the middle.

If it was beef, it'd be rare to med-rare.

Tried to trick my wife out of her share. Damn near got my arm broke!
I'd try some of that.

Awesome !

They look fantastic!
I like to fry them up like that, and add jasmine rice to suck up the scallop juice. Gotta get some now.
Thanks all.

pretty tasty.

What the hell is scallop milk
Whooo damn!
I love scallops and those look killer.

Scallop milk I'd guess is like clam liquor.

Well, I don't know if that's the correct term, but it's what I call the liquid in the vacpack after thawing the scallops. It looks like skim milk.

They come in frozen 3# bags from Costco. Kept frozen and portioned into vacpacks. I carefully extract the scallops from the bag, pat dry, and season. Then gently placed in hot bubbly butter/EVOO.

gitem_12, try to buy the scallops dry, if you have the opportunity. Otherwise, you're paying for water at the same price per lb as the scallops. Not always available that way, but if they are, I suggest jumping on them.
tell me more about dry, please.
Dry scallops taste much better....

That hepped!

I Googled costco scallops and there were several discussions. The bag is not labelled as having STP and some of the posters got confirmation from Costco that they are dry.
Cast iron and scallops - two of my favorite things! I'll have to try the frozen from Costco as fresh scallops around here are $16/lb when on sale.
