Spinach Salad With Scallops and Apples image

I couldn't find a good scallop and spinach salad recipe, so I googled around and this one came up. It's from a diabetic recipe site. We sautéed the scallops rather than broiling them, and added a dash of salt to the dressing. It turned out really well.

Categories     Spinach

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/4 lbs sea scallops
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon water
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
8 cups Baby Spinach
1 large tart apples, such as Fuji or 1 large granny smith apple, cored and chopped
2 tablespoons slivered almonds, toasted
fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat broiler. Lightly a broiler pan with cooking spray. Rinse scallops to remove any bits of shell or sand; pat dry with paper towels. Arrange the scallops on the broiler pan and lightly coat with cooking spray and broil, turning once, until opaque throughout (cut to test), about 5 to 7 minutes. Keep warm.
  • 2. In a small cup combine the oil, water, lemon juice and mustard. Set aside.
  • 3. Place the spinach in a bowl. Add the apples and almonds. Toss with the dressing. Season with pepper. Divide between 4 plates and top with scallops. Serve immediately.
