That would be my suggestion if it's the name of the dish.
If it's just part of the explanation of what's _in_ a particular dish (along with a bunch of other ingredients, for example), then it might be better to say あぶった帆立.
HTH, anyway...
Peer comment(s):

agree Yasutomo Kanazawa : Yes, あぶり焼きwould be a perfect word. Sear here means to lightly roast so that the juice of the meat or whatever you're cooking does not ooze.

帆立のソテー

If the scallop is fried quickly using a hot fring pan just to brown the surface, this may be better. 「あぶり焼き」is more like "grilled" or "broiled".

disagree Yumico Tanaka (X) : ソテーはsauteですから。
