- Pat the scallops dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt and pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the scallops to the hot skillet and sear for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and ginger and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Stir in the chili garlic sauce, lime juice, soy sauce, fish sauce, and brown sugar. Bring to a simmer.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 2 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
- Return the seared scallops to the skillet and toss gently to coat in the sauce.
- Garnish with chopped green onions and serve immediately with steamed rice or noodles.
