Prep 10 min · cook 20 min
  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil and pat the scallops very dry.
  2. Heat a heavy pan on high, add 1 teaspoon oil and the butter and wait until it browns; sear half the scallops without moving for 30 seconds, flip for 20–30 seconds more, then remove. Repeat.
  3. Cook the angel hair until al dente.
  4. Lower the pan to medium-high, add the remaining oil and the garlic for 1 minute, then the tomatoes, wine, salt and pepper for 2 minutes; stir in the lemon juice and most of the parsley.
  5. Pour off any liquid from the scallops, add them to the sauce and take the pan off the heat.
  6. Toss with the drained pasta and finish with the remaining parsley.
  7. Best eaten fresh; leftovers keep 2 days in the fridge, reheated gently with a splash of water.
