Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Sea scallops
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, minced
- 2 Bell peppers, sliced
- 1 cup Snow peas
- 1 cup Carrots, julienned
- 2 Green onions, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 2 cups Cooked white rice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Pat the sea scallops dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. Season them with salt and black pepper.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and cornstarch until smooth. Set the sauce aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the scallops to the hot skillet in a single layer. Sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the scallops from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and ginger, and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the bell peppers, snow peas, and carrots to the skillet. Stir fry the vegetables for 3-4 minutes until they are crisp-tender.
Return the cooked scallops to the skillet. Pour the prepared sauce over the scallops and vegetables, tossing everything to coat evenly. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and everything is heated through.
Garnish the stir fry with chopped green onions.
Serve hot over cooked white rice and enjoy!
