Ingredients
- 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 1 tbsp cider vinegar
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp minced shallots
- 1 1/2 tbsp raw honey
- 2 cups diced cooked and peeled yellow beets* (recipe follows)
- 1/4 cup crumbled goat cheese
- 12 large sea scallops (18 oz)
- olive oil cooking spray
- kosher salt and pepper to taste
- 5 oz baby arugula
- 8 g rape tomatoes (halved)
Steps
-
Cover the beets with water in a medium pot and bring to a boil.
-
Cover and cook over medium-low heat until tender when pierced with a fork, about 50 to 60 minutes.
-
Peel and dice into small cubes; set aside to cool.
-
Season scallops with salt and pepper.
-
Heat a large nonstick pan on a medium-high heat.
-
When the pan is hot, spray with oil and place scallops in the pan.
-
Sear without touching them until the bottom forms a nice caramel colored crust, about 2 to 3 minutes.
-
Turn and cook until their centers are still slightly translucent (you can check this by viewing them from the side), about 1 to 2 more minutes, careful not to overcook.
-
Remove from the pan.
-
Make vinaigrette by whisking the dressing ingredients in a small bowl.
-
Toss with the arugula.
-
Evenly divide the arugula between four large plates.
-
Top each with 1/2 cup beet, 1 oz goat cheese, tomato and 3 scallops each.
-
Serve immediately.
