Why This Recipe Is So Flavorful

This salad combines creamy avocado, sweet mango, and tender scallops for a perfect balance of flavors and textures. It’s light, refreshing, and packed with nutrients, making it a great choice for a healthy meal or appetizer.

Kitchen Tricks

- Use ripe mangoes and avocados for the best natural sweetness and creaminess.
- Sear scallops quickly on high heat to keep them tender and juicy.
- Add a squeeze of fresh lime juice to brighten the flavors and prevent avocado browning.

Step 1

Fil a skillet with about half an inch of water and bring it to a gentle boil. Add the scallops and cook them until they’re tender and just cooked through, which should take around 5 to 10 minutes. Once done, drain the water and let the scallops cool to room temperature. Toss them in a bowl with a little olive oil and a pinch of salt.

Step 2

Take the cilantro and separate the leaves from the stalks. Chop the stalks into roughly one-inch pieces and mix them back with the leaves. Sprinkle about half of this cilantro mixture onto your serving plate.

Step 3

In another bowl, combine the mango chunks, diced red bell pepper, and olives. Spread this colorful mix over the cilantro on the plate.

Step 4

Then, mix the remaining cilantro with the scallops and arrange them on top of the mango mixture. Finally, fan out the avocado slices around the edge of the plate and drizzle some fresh lemon juice over them to keep them bright and fresh.

How To Enjoy This Dish

Serve this salad chilled on a bed of mixed greens or baby spinach. It pairs well with crusty bread or a light white wine like Sauvignon Blanc for a simple yet elegant meal.

Storage Guide

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consume within 24 hours. To keep avocado from browning, drizzle a little extra lime juice on top before storing. Avoid keeping scallops for too long as they are best fresh.
