3. Make the Sauce:
-
Reduce heat to medium-low. Melt butter, then sauté garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant.
-
Pour in stock and cream, scraping up any browned bits. Stir in paprika and red pepper flakes.
-
Simmer 3–4 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
4. Finish & Serve:
-
Return scallops to the skillet, spooning sauce over them. Warm through for 1 minute.
-
Off heat, drizzle with lemon juice and sprinkle with herbs.
Pro Tip: Serve immediately over pasta, risotto, or crusty bread to soak up the sauce!
