Scallops are impossible to resist on restaurant menus, but cooked at home, are cheaper and taste just as good. For this recipe, scallops are seared in oil, then roasted for a few minutes with parmesan and chives. Serve with a sprinkling of flaky sea salt.

  1. Preheat the oven to 220°C. Heat the oil in a large ovenproof frying pan over a high heat.
  2. Season with scallops with salt and black pepper and arrange some grated Parmesan and chives on top of each one. Start to sear the scallops in the hot oil and transfer to the oven after 30 seconds.
  3. Roast for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and the scallops are springy to the touch. Serve immediately with some additional sea salt.
