I have to admit, the first time I cooked these scallops, it was missing something. After Foodhogger commented, I realized the missing ingredient. Garlic! Thanks Foodhogger! So this time, I cooked the scallops with a little bit of butter, garlic. Sprinkled some salt and black pepper, drizzled a bit of extra virgin olive oil and topped it up with sage. After tasting it... much improvement. Something else was needed to give it that extra wow factor. Lemon! It was perfect... a squeeze of fresh lemon made the dish so much more complete! It's funny, but sometimes if I haven't cooked a dish in a long time, I forget to add specific ingredients. The extra thin haricots verts were a perfect complement to this dish.
