Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Pat shrimp and scallops dry with a paper towel. Season everything with salt and pepper.

  2. Step 2

    Heat 1 tbsp butter in a large skillet over high heat until it foams and smells nutty, ~60 seconds.

  3. Step 3

    Add shrimp and scallops to the hot skillet without stirring. Sear 90 seconds per side until edges caramelize.

  4. Step 4

    Push seafood to the side. Add remaining butter and garlic to the center. Cook garlic 30 seconds until fragrant.

  5. Step 5

    Add squid rings to the skillet. Toss everything together and cook 60 seconds until squid just turns opaque.

  6. Step 6

    Pour soy sauce over the top. Toss to coat. Squeeze half the lemon over and serve immediately.
