Step 1
Heat 1 tbsp neutral oil in a 12-inch skillet over high heat until it shimmers, ~90 seconds.
Step 2
Add squid tendon. Sear 2 minutes without stirring — surface should look lightly browned.
Step 3
Push tendon to the side. Add scallops to the empty space. Sear 90 seconds per side without moving.
Step 4
Add garlic and white parts of scallions. Stir constantly for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 5
Pour soy sauce and mirin over everything. Add butter. Toss gently for 30 seconds until glaze coats all.
Step 6
Transfer to a bowl. Garnish with green scallion parts and serve immediately.
