Default pan seared sea scallops

i would have though they would have been thawed since i bought them at lunch time but no big deal

one pound



figure i'll thaw them out in a cold water bath



to my cast iron pan (cause i want it HOT) i'll add some olive oil and butta



and then i plan to lightly coat them with flour, some old bay, some white pepper, little dried organo, and some garlic powder



as a side i was thinking of rice or something??

hmm old bay and scallops... like using a sledge hammer on carpet tacks.
you overwhelm the delicate flavors of the scallop.

although from your pictures it looks like you left it out.
