Method

  1. Heat a frying pan or wok, add the pine nuts and cook them over a high heat for a min or two, to brown. Tip out and set aside.
  2. Put the chorizo in the pan and cook over a gentle heat until the fat starts to run, then turn up the heat, add the pepper and garlic and stir-fry for a few mins. Take out of the pan with a draining spoon and set aside in a warm bowl.
  3. Put the pan back on the heat, add the scallops and fry for 1-2 mins on each side until lightly browned. Add to the chorizo mixture in the bowl.
  4. Heat the oil in the pan, add the kale and stir-fry for 2 mins. Put the scallop and sausage mixture back in the pan, heat through for a minute, season, sprinkle with pine nuts and serve straight from the pan.
