Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp. mirin
  • 2 tbsp. white miso
  • 1 tbsp. low-sodium soy sauce or tamari
  • 16 sea scallops about 1 lb., side muscle removed
  • Olive oil cooking spray
  • Sliced fresh chives for serving

Instructions
 

  • In a medium bowl, whisk mirin, miso, and soy sauce until smooth. Pat scallops dry with paper towels and add to miso mixture, tossing to coat. Let marinate at least 5 minutes or up to 15.
  • Coat an air-fryer basket with cooking spray. Working in batches, arrange scallops in basket, spacing about 1" apart. Cook at 400° until medium-rare and tops are slightly caramelized (do not flip), about 5 minutes.
  • Transfer scallops to a platter. Sprinkle with chives.
