3. In a food processor, shred the Brussels sprouts, then season with salt and pepper.
4. Heat 2 tbsp of the oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering hot. Add the Brussels sprouts and toss to coat with the oil. Cover and cook a few minutes until starting to soften. Transfer to a platter and keep warm.
5. Heat the remaining 1 tbsp oil in the skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering hot. Add the scallops and cook, flipping once, until browned and just cooked through, about 5 minutes total. Put the scallops on top of the Brussels sprouts on the platter
