How To Prepare
Thaw scallops, if frozen. Rinse scallops; pat dry with paper towels. For vinaigrette: In a screw-top jar, combine basil, vinegar, lemon juice, oil, mustard, and 1/4 teaspoon of the black pepper. Cover and shake well. Set aside.
2.
Sprinkle scallops with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Coat an unheated large nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Preheat over medium-high heat. Add scallops. Cook for 2 to 4 minutes or until scallops are opaque, turning once halfway through cooking.
3.
Meanwhile, divide salad greens among four serving plates. In a large bowl, combine tomatoes, sweet pepper, and cucumber. Add half of the vinaigrette; toss to coat. Add to serving plates with greens. Add scallops to salads and brush with some of the remaining vinaigrette. Pass the remaining vinaigrette.
