Quick scallop dish

Last night I came across Alton Brown's simple technique for searing scallops. With that in mind, I went to WholePaycheck and bought their ready made mango salsa and a can of truffle olive oil, along with 10 scallops big enough for searing. The dinner was then really simple. I took out of the freezer one of Trader Joe's asparagus risotto and heat that in a chef's pan. Seared the scallops in oil and butter. Served it with a drizzle of truffle oil topped with mango salsa. Really fast and easy. Scallops was about $11, truffle oil $10, mango salsa $5, and risotto was probably $3. The result was delectable.
