The finished product should be the same as a seared oyster.
Loose and translucent in the center.

Yes.
Slobber them in the burnt butter left in the pan just before serving.

El Paso scallops?
Just as bad as Albuquerque oysters.

Naw, I can’t handle them. Lobsters, crabs, shrimp, ok. But not them things.

Does anyone have any tempting recipes for the much smaller “bay” scallops, perhaps some sort of pasta or seafood chowder or even ceviche? If so, please share!
