4 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon lemon juice
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
Rinse the Jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rice with 2 cups of water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, being careful not to burn it.
Pat the scallops dry and season with salt and pepper. Increase the skillet’s heat to medium-high, add scallops, and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and opaque.
Once cooked, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and lemon juice to the skillet, letting the butter melt and coat the scallops.
Fluff the cooked rice, divide it into bowls, and top with scallops. Drizzle with remaining sauce and garnish with parsley and optional green onions.
