- 1 tsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped

Pat the scallops thoroughly dry with paper towels, pressing gently on all sides — they should feel tacky, not damp. Season both flat sides with the fine sea salt.

Warm the olive oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until softened and fragrant but not browned, about 1–2 minutes. Add the thyme, rosemary, and turmeric and stir for 30 seconds until the herbs are fragrant. Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice. Set the drizzle aside.
