Step by Step Method
Step 1
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Pat scallops dry and sprinkle with pepper. Add the scallops to the pan and cook, flipping once, until browned and just cooked through, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
Step 2
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, asparagus and carrots to the pan and cook, stirring frequently, until tender-crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Add shallot, olives, capers and garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add wine and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat and add butter; stir until melted. Sprinkle with parsley to serve, if desired.
