  • Place the pepper and endives into a oven proof dish, cover in tin foil and place bacon on top of the foil. Place in preheated oven at 180 degrees for 30 mins.
  • In meantime mix all ingredients together for dressing and whisk well.
  • When time remove the bacon, pepper and endive from the oven.
  • Now season the scallops, and pan fry for 2 mins one side in a hot pan, leave space between each scallop so that when they drop their water content (and they will) they don't boil each other.
  • Turn the scallops and begin to dress the salad.
  • After two minutes drop the butter into the pan, and baste all the scallops before removing from the heat.
  • Layer the salad and sprinkle the bacon bits on top before placing your scallops to finish.
