1. Pull off the small white piece of muscle attached to the side of each scallop (some might not have it).
2. Pat scallops dry on paper towels and season lightly with salt.
3. Heat oil in a large heavy -bottomed skillet over high heat.
4. When the pan is very hot, use tongs to lower in each scallop,flat side down.

6. Flip scallops and brown the other side (if they stick, loosen with the edge of a sharp metal spatula).
7. Place scallops on a warm platter and cover loosely with foil.
