Orange Soy Glazed Scallops

There is a Japanese steakhouse nearby that I absolutely love. Not only is watching the chef prepare the food at the table amazing, but they do something amazing with the food. There is always the perfect balance of flavors and the ingredients always are fresh.

My favorite dish to get is their scallops. I'm not sure why, but cooking scallops have always intimidated me. Maybe it is the fairly expensive price tag combined with the finicky nature of scallops that demand to be cooked just so. But I finally gave in and decided to try cooking some. And let me tell you, a little googling and youtubing of how to properly cook them, and they were AMAZING.
