How to cook deliciously - Scallop Salad
1. Stage
Pat the scallops dry with paper towels and sprinkle with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the scallops and sear them for one to two minutes on each side or until they turn golden brown and firm. Remove the scallops from the pan and keep them warm. Editor’s Tip: For tender, cooked scallops, the skillet should be hot and the oil shimmering. They are perfectly cooked when you have a crust on the edges and top, and an opaque but still bouncy center.
2. Stage
In the same skillet, combine the chopped chives, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, fresh tarragon, honey, Dijon mustard and remaining olive oil. Bring the dressing to a boil, then cook and stir until it's slightly thickened, about 30 seconds.
3. Stage
Divide the salad greens, shredded carrots and chopped tomato among four plates and top them with scallops. Drizzle the salad with the warm dressing and serve it immediately.
