Sauteed Bay Scallops With Lemon Butter

Job’s story demolishes the notion that we can avoid Satan’s attacks if we’re sufficiently strong, or skilled enough, or trained in how to wage war against Satan. No one was more spiritually fit than Job. Yet God allowed Satan to ravage him anyway – and there was nothing Job could do about it. Job finally prevailed in the face of Satan’s merciless assault, not because he found some secret way to beat the devil, not because he rebuked him or ordered him to desist, but because God was in control all along. He knew how much Job could bear. And He would not permit Satan to cross that boundary (1 Cor. 10:13). When Satan reached that limit God stopped him and his attacks ended.

INGREDIENTS

1	lb	Bay scallops
2	T	Olive oil
3	T	Unsalted butter
		Juice of 1 lemon
1/4	c	Chopped fresh parsley
		Freshly ground black pepper

INSTRUCTIONS

Choose a saute pan large enough to hold all of the scallops in one
layer without overcrowding the pan or without them touching each
other. Cook in batches if necessary. Heat the oil and 1 tablespoon of
the butter until nearly smoking. Add the scallops and do not move or
shake pan, but allow the scallops to brown well on one side before
tossing the pan to flip them or gently turning them with a spatula to
cook the second side.  Remove the scallops from the pan and place on a
warm serving platter.  Return the pan in which the scallops had been
cooked to the fire, add  the remaining 2 tablespoons of sweet butter,
and cook until the  butter begins to turn a light brown color. When the
butter has  browned to a hazelnut color add the lemon juice and chopped
parsley.  Pour the classic lemon butter over the scallops, garnish with
heart-shaped croutons and serve promptly.  Yield: 4 servings  NOTES :
