Инструкции

  1. For the Couscous: Drain the pineapple, pressing on it with the back of a spoon, reserving all of the juice (1 1/4 c.). To make the salsa, combine the pineapple with the peppers, mint, cilantro and lime juice. Season to taste with salt and cayenne pepper. Place 1/2 c. of the salsa in a small bowl and set aside. Place the remaining salsa in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add in the onion and cook till translucent/soft, about 5 min. Pour in the reserved pineapple juice and bring to a boil. Stir in the couscous, cover and remove from the heat. Let stand for 5 min. Gently add in the couscous to the larger bowl of salsa and combine. Season to taste with salt.
  3. For the Scallops: Place the scallops on a plate and season both sides with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the pan is very warm but not smoking, add in the scallops. Sear for about 2 min. Turn and sear the other side for about 1 1/2 min. The scallops should be nicely browned and just starting to crack.
  4. Divide the couscous proportionately among 4 plates and top each with scallops. Divide the remaining 1/2 c. of salsa over the scallops for garnish.
  5. This recipe yields 4 servings.
