Warm Scallop Caesar Salad
Posted on May 18th, 2009 by Andrew
Ingredients:
- 8 large sea scallops
- 4 cups washed romaine lettuce
- 1-2 tsp. olive oil
- 1-2 T water (for larger pan use 2 T)
- 4 T Caesar Salad Dressing
- fresh lemon juice from 1/2 lemon
- shaved Parmesan cheese
Directions:
- In a heavy, non-stick pan that heats evenly, heat olive oil over medium-high heat about 30 seconds, then add scallops and cook quickly, not more than 2 minutes per side.
- While scallops cook, assemble lettuce and cheese on two serving plates. Place four scallops on top of lettuce on each plate.
- Turn pan to high and put water in, then scrape the bottom of the pan to get any browned bits, keeping heat high to let some of the water evaporate. After about 1 minute, turn off heat.
- Stir in salad dressing and lemon juice and let it get slightly warm in the hot pan, then pour over salad and serve.
