Ingredients
- 4 pieces (medium-sized, cleaned and shucked) fresh abalone
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 0.5 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 4 cups mixed salad greens
- 1 medium (sliced) cucumber
- 1 cup (halved) cherry tomatoes
- 4 thinly sliced radishes
- 1 medium-sized (sliced) avocado
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Begin by preparing the abalone: Use a sharp knife to thinly slice the abalone across the grain.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, honey, and freshly ground black pepper to create the dressing.
Step 3
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the prepared dressing to the skillet.
Step 4
Once hot, add the sliced abalone to the skillet, cooking for about 1-2 minutes on each side until just tender and opaque. Be careful not to overcook as abalone can become tough.
Step 5
Remove the abalone from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes.
Step 6
In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed salad greens, sliced cucumber, cherry tomatoes, radishes, avocado, and fresh parsley.
Step 7
Add the cooked abalone to the salad bowl.
Step 8
Drizzle the remaining dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat all ingredients evenly.
Step 9
Serve the salad immediately, ensuring each serving has a good balance of abalone and vegetables.
