Summery-fresh creation with a subtle orange note

Cut the mozzarella into pieces. Fillet 2 oranges, reserving the juice if possible. Juice the third orange. Whisk the orange juice with balsamic vinegar and 2 tablespoons of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Sauté the scampi with the garlic clove in 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Deglaze with a little lime juice. Arrange the lettuce leaves on large plates. Distribute the mozzarella, orange segments, and dressing on top. Place the fried scampi on top and sprinkle everything with the pine nuts. Serve with baguette and a light white wine.
