Method

For the Scallop Toast

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bread

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the sourdough slices on a baking sheet and brush both sides with olive oil. Sprinkle a little salt and black pepper on top. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until golden and crispy.

  2. 2

    Cook the Scallops

    In a skillet, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the scallops with salt and pepper. Once the oil is hot, add the scallops and sear for about 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.

For the Nduja Vinaigrette

  1. 3

    Make the Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, whisk together the nduja, red wine vinegar, and honey until well combined. Slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil while whisking to create an emulsion. Adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper to taste.

For the Sorrel Garnish

  1. 4

    Prepare the Sorrel

    In a small bowl, toss the fresh sorrel leaves with lemon juice and a pinch of salt. This will enhance their flavor and make them a perfect garnish for the dish.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Assemble the Scallop Toast

    On each slice of toasted sourdough, place 2-3 scallops. Drizzle the nduja vinaigrette over the scallops generously, then top with the prepared sorrel leaves. Serve immediately and enjoy!
