Scallops with Fennel & Orange Olive Oil.

This is a delicious simple way to prepare scallops. It takes 10 minutes to prepare the marinade and you can leave it in the fridge during the day. Take it out of the fridge when you get home and start your rice.  Brown your scallops, and then heat the rest of the marinade  - all in all 8 - 10 minutes!
