Citrus Scallop Salad Recipe
  • Prep: 20 min. Cook: 20 min.
  • Yield: 4 Servings
20 20 40

Ingredients

  • 8 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 cup white wine
  • 1 lb large scallops, cut in half crosswise
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper (to taste)
  • 1 pinch salt (to taste)
  • 6 cups salad greens
  • 1 medium red bell peppers, cut crosswise into rings
  • 2 medium oranges, peeled, seeded, and sectioned
  • 1 tablespoon fresh basil

Directions

  • Combine the garlic and white wine in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Add the scallops and cook on medium high heat for about 5 minutes, stirring often, until tender and opaque.
  • With a slotted spoon, remove the scallops from the pan and set them aside in a bowl.
  • Reduce the remaining garlic and wine to about 1/4 cup by simmering for about 10 minutes and set aside to cool.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the orange juice, lemon juice, and olive oil.
  • Add the reduced wine liquid and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Toss the dressing with the scallops.
  • Spread the greens on a large platter and arrange the pepper rings and orange sections artfully around the edge.
  • Ladle the scallops into the center of the serving platter and drizzle the rest of the dressing over the salad.
  • Top with basil and serve immediately.

I would like to try this recipe but you don't list all the quantities for the ingredients that's why I gave it 1 star sounds good though.
