Lady Lindas Delightful Shrimp And Scallop Stir Fry Food

SPICY STIR-FRY WITH SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add the peanut oil.
• In a bowl, mix together the soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, cornstarch, ginger and sriracha. Set aside.
• Add the scallops to the skillet and sear until nice and browned, 2 minutes per side. Remove to a plate.
• Crank up the heat to high. Add the baby corn, squash and broccoli and cook, stirring everything around, for 2 minutes. Then add the snow peas and chile pepper and continue to cook for about 1 minute.
• Give the reserved sauce a quick stir and add it to the skillet along with 1/2 cup water. Continue to cook until the sauce thickens, about a minute or two. Add the scallops back to the skillet and gently stir to coat them in the sauce.
• Serve immediately over rice and garnish with the scallions and cilantro.

Steps:

• Toss the scallops with the ginger, red pepper flakes, seafood seasoning, fish sauce, and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch in a bowl. Cover, and marinate 30 minutes.
• Heat half of the oil in a wok over high heat. Stir in the garlic, and cook until it begins to brown, about 30 seconds. Stir in the marinated scallops, and cook until they are no longer translucent in the center, about 3 minutes. Dissolve the remaining 1 tablespoon of cornstarch in the chicken broth. Pour into the wok, and stir until thickened. Remove to a bowl.
• Clean the wok well, and heat the remaining oil over high heat; stir in the onion, mushrooms, zucchini, yellow squash, and carrot. Cook and stir until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the shrimp, green pepper, and scallop mixture. Stir until hot.
