1

Begin by patting the scallops dry with a paper towel.

2

Brush both sides of each scallop with olive oil to help with browning and to prevent sticking.

3

Season the scallops with salt and ground black pepper.

4

Place the seasoned scallops on a plate or a tray and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 15-30 minutes.

5

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

6

While the grill is heating up, prepare the grill grate. Using a paper towel dipped in oil or a grill brush, lightly coat the grate with oil to prevent the scallops from sticking.

7

Once the grill is ready and the grate is oiled, carefully place the scallops on the grill. Arrange them in a single layer.

8

Grill the scallops for 2 to 3 minutes on each side.

9

Once grilled to perfection, remove the scallops from the grill and transfer them to a serving plate.
