Steps:
- Put the dragon fruit in the fridge for a few hours and allow it to get very cold. This will allow you to dice it finely. Season the scallops with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a skillet on medium high heat and pan sear the scallops until golden brown (about 2 to 3 minutes on each side).
- In a separate bowl, combine the dragon fruit, lemon juice, and chopped chives. Top the scallops with the dragon fruit salsa and serve
SEARED SCALLOPS WITH TROPICAL SALSA
The delicious taste of scallops is perfectly complemented by a wonderful fresh fruit salsa in this quick but elegant dish. Be sure to use large, plump sea scallops rather than smaller bay scallops and take care not to overcook the scallops; they should remain tender and moist. Feel free to substitute any of your favorite exotic fruits for the pineapple and mango in the salsa.
