Steps:
- In a small bowl, mash together the butter, lemon juice, garlic, thyme, and parsley. (The lemon juice may not fully incorporate, which is fine.) Set aside.
- Pat the scallops dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
- Heat olive oil in a medium cast iron skillet over medium-high heat, until shimmering. Keep the garlic herb butter nearby.
- Add the scallops in a single layer, without touching. Sear, without moving, for 2-3 minutes, until a crust forms on the bottom.
- Flip the scallops and immediately add the garlic herb butter to the pan around the scallops in pieces. Sear the scallops for 2-3 more minutes, basting them with the butter occasionally, until a crust forms on the other side and scallops are cooked through.

DEEP-FRIED SCALLOPS "OSCAR"
Steps:
- For the Oscar sauce: In a medium saucepan, combine the butter, crabmeat, granulated garlic, lemon juice, chives, parsley, 2 tablespoons salt and 2 tablespoons pepper and warm gently. Keep warm.
- For the corn cream: Add the cream, butter, corn, garlic and shallot to a food processor and blend well. Transfer to a saucepan, then simmer until hot. Remove from the heat, then strain through a fine-mesh sieve.
- For the scallops: Combine the cornmeal, flour, Creole seasoning, granulated garlic, 2 1/2 tablespoons salt and 2 1/2 tablespoons pepper in a large bowl. Fill a large Dutch oven halfway with oil and slowly bring the temperature to 350 degrees F. Sprinkle the scallops with salt and pepper, then dredge in some of the cornmeal mixture (reserve the rest for another use). Fry the scallops until golden.
- For serving: Toss together the arugula and watercress with some olive oil, the lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste. Spread the corn cream across 4 plates. Divide the salad among the plates on top of the cream, then top with the scallops. Top the scallops with the crab sauce and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Gather ingredients.
- If scallops are quite large, cut them so the sizes are fairly uniform.
- Rinse the scallops under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Remove the tough white side muscle if not already removed.
- Heat about 2 to 3 inches of vegetable oil in a deep, heavy cast-iron skillet, saucepan, or deep fryer to 350 F.
- Line a baking pan or baking sheet with 2 or 3 thicknesses of paper towels and set aside.
- In a bowl, combine flour, salt, paprika, and black pepper.
- In another bowl, whisk eggs with the milk.
- Put the fine breadcrumbs in a third bowl.
- Dip a few of the scallops in the seasoned flour mixture, then in the egg mixture, and then roll them in the breadcrumbs to coat. Repeat with the remaining scallops.
- Once the oil has reached the temperature (350 F), add several scallops―about 6 to 10 depending on the pan size―to the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Take care not to overcook. They should be warm in the middle, but still moist.
- Remove them from the oil with a metal slotted spoon and transfer them to the paper-towel-lined pan. Shake the pan gently for a few seconds so the scallops roll around and excess oil is absorbed.
- Repeat with subsequent batches.
- Serve immediately with your choice of cocktail sauce , rémoulade sauce , or tartar sauce. Enjoy.

- Toss the scallops with 1/2 cup buttermilk and a pinch of salt and pepper in a bowl; set aside.

Mix the cornmeal, flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a shallow baking dish.

FRIED SCALLOPS
Use large sea scallops, which are often labeled "u/10" or "u/12," which stands for under 10 or 12 to a pound. And try to get dry scallops as opposed to wet ones, which have been treated with chemicals to extend their shelf life and add moisture. Dry scallops exude much less liquid when cooked and have better texture and flavor. These untreated scallops often tend to be less bright white, but your fishmonger should be able to tell you for sure what you're buying.

Steps:
- Combine flour, corn flour and baking powder in a medium-size aluminum baking pan and shake around to mix well.
- Dry scallops with paper towels, then dip both sides in flour mixture and shake off any excess.
- Put a 20-inch iron skillet over a propane gas burner and turn burner to high. Add enough oil to come to a depth of just over 1/4 inch. Heat until oil is hot but not smoking; you can test it by dropping a small piece of scallop into the oil; it should bubble furiously.
- When oil is hot, add scallops in batches small enough so they're not crowded, and cook just until golden, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels and eat right away.
