For best results, ensure the scallops are very dry before searing. This will help them develop a beautiful golden-brown crust.
Don't overcrowd the pan, or the scallops will steam instead of sear. Cook in batches if necessary.
Be careful not to overcook the scallops, as they can become rubbery. They're done when they're firm to the touch and opaque all the way through.
