Toast pine nuts. Heat a pan over medium heat for a couple minutes and add the pine nuts. You don’t need anything else, no oil, no salt, no pepper

Allow the pine nuts to toast for 30 – 45 seconds, and then toss them in the pan

Let them go another 30 seconds or so, and then toss again

Repeat this process until you start seeing them just brown, then remove them let them cool

Be careful, not to burn them. They can go from nicely browned to burnt, very quickly, so I suggest you stick around, rather than walking away for a couple minutes

Heat olive oil in medium sized saucepan, medium high heat.  Pat scallops dry softly. Salt and pepper before adding to saucepan.  Add scallops and cook for three minutes.

Add butter to pan along with garlic and herbs.  Turn scallops over and cook until golden – approximately 2 minutes.

Squeeze lemon juice over scallops and served.
