  • Return water in pot to a boil. Add shrimp and simmer until just cooked through, about 3 minutes, then transfer to pan with lobster, reserving cooking water. Add scallops to pot and simmer until just cooked through, about 3 minutes, then transfer to pan with lobster and shrimp. Discard cooking water.
  • When cool enough to handle, remove meat from lobster tail and claws using kitchen shears, catching juices in pan. Working over pan, remove shells from shrimp. Discard lobster and shrimp shells. Cut shrimp in half lengthwise and devein. Cut lobster meat and scallops into 1/2-inch pieces. Transfer seafood to a bowl and pour juices from pan through a fine-mesh sieve over seafood.

Green Bean and Fennel Salad with Pecans image

Serve this colorful salad along with our Bay-Leaf-Crusted Pork Roast.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Salad Recipes

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup pecan pieces
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 pound green beans, trimmed
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/3 cup olive oil
3 medium fennel bulbs (about 2 pounds total), cored and thinly sliced, fronds reserved (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Fill a bowl with ice water; set aside. Spread pecans on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until fragrant and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes; set aside. (Store up to two days in an airtight container.)
  • Place 1/2 inch water in a large skillet with a lid. Bring to a boil; salt generously. Add green beans, cover skillet, and cook over medium heat, tossing occasionally, until crisp-tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer immediately to ice water. Drain; pat dry with paper towels. (Cover and refrigerate up to 10 hours.)
  • In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice and mustard; season with salt and pepper. Gradually whisk in oil. (Cover and refrigerate up to 10 hours.) To serve, combine all ingredients in a large bowl, and toss with dressing; garnish with fennel fronds, if desired.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the salad will taste. Look for seafood that is firm and has a mild, briny smell. The fennel and green beans should be crisp and brightly colored.
  • Don't overcook the seafood: Seafood is delicate and can easily be overcooked. Cook it until it is just opaque and flaky. Overcooked seafood will be tough and chewy.
  • Use a good quality olive oil: Olive oil is a key ingredient in this salad. Use a good quality extra virgin olive oil that has a fruity, peppery taste.
  • Season the salad well: The salad should be well-seasoned with salt and pepper. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dash of white wine vinegar to taste.
  • Serve the salad immediately: This salad is best served immediately after it is made. The seafood will start to lose its flavor if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

This seafood salad with fennel and green beans is a light and refreshing dish that is perfect for a summer lunch or dinner. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own preferences. For example, you can add other vegetables, such as tomatoes or cucumbers, or you can use a different type of seafood, such as shrimp or salmon. No matter how you make it, this salad is sure to be a hit.
