Ingredients

• 12 large Fresh sea scallops
• 4 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger
• 1 small Garlic clove
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh chives
• 2 small Radishes
• 1 cup Microgreens

Directions

Step 1

Start by placing the scallops in the freezer for 10-15 minutes for easier slicing.

Step 2

Meanwhile, prepare the dressing by combining extra-virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, soy sauce, and honey in a small bowl.

Step 3

Grate the fresh ginger and finely mince the garlic clove. Add both to the dressing and stir well to combine. Season with salt and black pepper.

Step 4

Using a sharp knife, slice the partially frozen scallops horizontally into thin slices (about 1/4 inch thickness) and arrange them evenly on chilled serving plates.

Step 5

Thinly slice the radishes using a mandoline or a sharp knife and set aside.

Step 6

Drizzle the prepared dressing over the scallop slices using a spoon, ensuring each piece is coated lightly.

Step 7

Sprinkle finely chopped fresh chives and lemon zest over the top.

Step 8

Finally, add a small handful of thinly sliced radishes and microgreens on top for garnish and texture.

Step 9

Serve immediately while the scallops are fresh and cold, ensuring that the delicate flavors are enjoyed in their entirety.
