4largesScallops; sliced
4tablespoonsButter
1ounceChopped walnuts
2ouncesSeedles grapes; peeled
1tablespoonLemon juice; or to taste
1tablespoonFresh tarragon
Salt and freshly ground pepper

Directions

Make a slit in each piece of salmon and stuff with ¼ tsp chopped tarragon. Season the salmon with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tbsp of the butter in a frying pan large enough to hold the salmon in a single layer. Saut‚ the salmon over moderate heat for 2-3 minutes on each side. It should be firm to the touch. Be careful not to overcook as the salmon dries out easily. Transfer the salmon to a warmed plate, cover and keep warm.

Add the rest of the butter to the pan. Add the walnuts, grapes, scallops and lemon juice and toss over a moderate heat for about 1 minute or until the scallops are opaque. Season with salt and pepper and spoon the mixture over the salmon. Sprinkle with the remaining tarragon. Serve immediately.
