Time 1h

Yield 6 servings as a main dish

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 cups chopped onion
3 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons olive oil
1 teaspoon curry powder
2 cups long-grain rice
4 cups no-salt-added chicken stock
1/4 teaspoon saffron or turmeric
1 cup dry white wine
1/2 pound seafood sausage
1 pound large scallops
4 tablespoons white-wine vinegar
6 tablespoons lemon juice
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
1/4 cup chopped parsley
1 pound shelled cooked shrimp, cut in half
1 1/2 pounds yellow, orange, purple, red and green peppers, finely chopped
1 large or 2 small bunches arugula, trimmed, washed and dried

Steps:

  • Sauté onion in the 2 teaspoons hot oil in nonstick pan over medium-high heat. When onion softens, add curry.
  • Add the rice, stock and saffron or turmeric, stirring well. Reduce heat, and simmer the rice, covered, for 17 minutes total, until liquid has been absorbed and rice is tender.
  • Meanwhile, heat the wine; add the sausage, and cook about 10 minutes, until the sausage is firm to the touch; remove. Add the scallops and cook 2 or 3 minutes, depending on size. Slice the sausage 1/4 inch thick, removing casing if it is too thick to eat.
  • Whisk together the 3 tablespoons oil, vinegar, lemon juice, salt, pepper, rosemary and parsley in a bowl large enough to hold all the ingredients. Add the rice, shrimp, scallops, sausage and peppers and chill a couple of hours, or overnight. To serve, arrange the arugula on each of six plates and mound the salad on top of the arugula.

I'm allergic to shellfish, so I used chicken instead of shrimp in this salad. It was still delicious!
