For those of you learning to cook, the key here is to get the pan hot first (but the oil should NOT be smoking) and then add the scallops. Then don't move them again until they've seared for a couple of minutes. You should also press the scallops against a paper towel before you sear them to get rid of excess water, which will give you a better sear.
