1 lb (500g) frozen bay scallops (thawed, rinsed and pat dry with paper towels)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 pinch salt

Steps

Heat a skillet with the melted butter. Sauté the garlic, stirring with a spatula a few times. Add the bay scallops and continue to sauté. Then add the lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
