Wash and dry the lettuces thoroughly. Mix the honey with the mustard. Add the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, raspberry vinegar, vegetable stock, and apple juice and whisk well. Season with salt and pepper. Thread three scampi onto each skewer. Heat a little olive oil in a pan and fry the scampi briefly until cooked through. Then drizzle with a little olive oil. Cut the goat cheese into approximately 1.5 cm thick slices and place them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 130 °C for 15 to 20 minutes, until the cheese is light golden brown. Remove the seeds from the pomegranate. Roughly grind the walnuts. Dip the lettuces in the dressing and arrange on plates. Place two slices of goat cheese from the oven on each salad and place a scampi skewer on top. Sprinkle with pomegranate seeds and ground walnuts. Garnish with balsamic cream.
