Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb scallops
  • 2 cups cooked rice (jasmine or basmati)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  3. Sear the scallops, gently adding them to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden crust forms.
  4. Remove the seared scallops and place on a plate.
  5. Cook the minced garlic and red pepper flakes in the same skillet for about 1 minute until fragrant.
