Warm salad of scallops "Cooper"

Description

A week ago his family visited our Seaside capital - Vladivostok. Had dinner in the restaurant "Cooper's House". I have a weakness for warm salads and seafood, so the choice fell unambiguously on this salad. All week I was tormented and wanted to cook it, and now, today, this moment. Of course, I couldn't have the chef to ferret out the secrets of cooking and improvised, but the result did not disappoint me. Even exceeded my expectations.

Cooking

Carl Henry Cooper was an active entrepreneur and has left an appreciable trace in the history of Vladivostok. This restaurant is located in a former hotel, owned by Cooper and built in the 19th century.

Now, about the salad. The original recipe is taken arugula. But we have this grass problem to buy even in the supermarket in town. So I took a simple leaf salad. It is possible to break or cut.

Next, cut cubes of pear. Pear should be ripe, juicy, firm and delicious at the same time. Almost impossible condition for our imported pears.

Tomatoes, it is better to take cherry tomatoes, cut arbitrarily.

Make a dressing of olive and sesame oil and lemon juice.

Vegetables stir, add salt, pour the dressing.

Next, take the frozen scallops. Because I love him very much, then the norm has increased in portions of 2 times. The comb can be cut, but if smaller (as I have), it should not be cut. Spread on a hot pan, to evaporate the liquid, add butter and fry. The whole process should take no longer than 10 minutes or the scallops will become rubbery.

Spread the vegetables on a serving plate.

Spread on top of the scallop.

Further, according to the recipe sprinkle with pine nuts. But my youngest son mercilessly ate, what I cooked for the salad. Still cat helped him, had no idea that cats eat nuts. I had to sprinkle crushed walnuts.

Decorate with thin round slices of cheese. I chose brie, although this is not essential. The salad is ready.
