Ingredients

1 tbsp miso paste

1 tbsp sake

1 tsp soy sauce

1 tsp sugar

1 tbsp oil

0.5 lb sea scallops

1 tsp water, optional

1 tbsp butter

Directions

In a small bowl, mix miso, sake, soy sauce, and sugar.

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add scallops; cook for 3-4 minutes on one side, then flip and cook until no longer translucent and fully cooked, approximately 1 minute more.

Reduce heat to low; let the skillet cool down for about 1 minute. Pour in the miso mixture; cook for around 3 minutes, adding water if needed to thin the sauce. Stir in butter until melted.
