    | 1. Heat 12" nonstick skillet over medium-high heat for 1-2 minutes. | 2. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil and heat until quite hot. | 3. Pat scallops dry one more time and put them in the pan in a single, uncrowded layer. | 4. Season with salt and pepper and let sear undisturbed until one side is browned and crisp, 2-4 minutes. | 5. Using tongs, turn the scallops and sear until the second side is well browned and the scallops are almost firm to the touch, 2-4 minutes. | 6. Take the pan off the heat, transfer the scallops to a plate, and set them in a warm spot. | 7. Let the pan cool for a minutes before you make the sauce. | 8. When pan has cooled somewhat, return it to medium heat. | 9. Add a piece of the butter and the shallots and saute until shallots begin to soften, about 1 minutes. | 10. Add wine and simmer until reduced by half, another 1-2 minutes. | 11. Add the herbs and lemon zest. | 12. Reduce heat to low, add the remaining butter, and whisk constantly until the butter melts into the sauce. | 13. Return the scallops and any accumulated juices to the pan. | 14. Gently roll the scallops in the sauce to warm them through. | 15. Taste for salt and pepper and serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side to squeeze over the scallops. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
