this is a really easy way to cook them:

Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in pan, add 2 crushed garlic cloves and finely chopped fresh red chilli (about half a standard supermarket chilli, or more/less depending on how hot you like your food). Add about 2 tbsp tomato puree and a small splash of red wine and fry for about 5 mins. Add enough scallops for 2-3 people, cook for no more than 3 min. Add lots of fresh, chopped coriander and black pepper, stir, remove from heat.
Serve with crusty french bread and peppery salad leaves - this is good as starter. Scallops are very filling so you wont need more than 3 or 4 per person.
