Throw the whole mixture onto a medium hot pan with a light coating of oil on it.

Flip em over after about a minute or two. They should be slightly toasted on the bottom.

Let em cook for a about a minute more and then spoon them onto a plate and enjoy.

Here you have a load of options. You can either just eat em plain, with pasta, vegies, or whatever. I pan fried some noodles and cashews in the left over herbs and oil and dumped the scallops on top. That's how you make some damn fine scallops.
