Poached Scallop Salad with Light Cumin Vinaigrette


1 lb (500 g) whole bay scallops
Light Orange Cumin Vinaigrette (recipe follows)
1/2 cup finely diced red, green, or yellow bell pepper,
or combination of these
1/2 lb (250 g) mixed lettuce leaves, rinsed

Place the scallops in a steamer basket or in a strainer and set in a saucepan over simmering water. Cover and steam for 3 to 4 minutes, just until they turn opaque. Drain the scallops and place in a bowl with 3 tablespoon (45 ml) of the cumin vinaigrette and the diced bell peppers. Toss to combine thoroughly and refrigerate at least 2 hours, or overnight. Dress the lettuce leaves with 3 tablespoon (45 ml) of the vinaigrette and toss to mix well. Divide the lettuce leaves among individual serving plates and mound the scallops on top. Pass the remaining dressing on the side.

Serves 4 to 6.
