  2. Remove meat from pan and pull it off fire to cool for a minute. 
  3. Drizzle some extra-virgin olive oil over the scallops and season with salt and pepper. Get a skillet screaming hot and cook scallops 2 to 3 minutes on each side until well caramelized. 
  4. Bring 2 inches water to a boil in a medium skillet for asparagus. 
  5. Return meat pan to medium heat and add 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil. Add shallots, garlic and cook 2 minutes. Add sweet vermouth and reduce by half, 30 seconds or so. Add butter to the pan to finish sauce.
