Pan-Seared Scallops with Artichoke and Asparagus Salad

Ingredients:

2 fresh artichokes

1 lb asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces

8 large scallops, cleaned and patted dry

2 tbsp olive oil

2 tbsp lemon juice

1 tbsp Dijon mustard

1 tsp honey

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh herbs (such as tarragon or parsley), for garnish

Instructions:

Prepare the artichokes by trimming and removing the choke. Slice the hearts thinly and place in a bowl of lemon water to prevent browning.

Blanch the asparagus in boiling water for about 2 minutes until tender-crisp, then transfer to an ice bath to stop the cooking.

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, mustard, honey, salt, and pepper.

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the scallops for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.

In a large bowl, combine the artichokes, asparagus, and dressing. Toss gently to coat.

Serve the seared scallops on top of the artichoke and asparagus salad, garnished with fresh herbs.
