Seared Scallops with Apricot-Lime Sauce Recipe

  • 1 pound bay scallops
  • Salt and ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3/4 cup apricot preserves
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
  1. Season both sides of scallops with salt and black pepper. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add scallops and cook 1 to 2 minutes per side, until golden brown.
