What You'll Need
- 2 tablespoon peanut oil
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 1 pound bay scallops
- 2 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 1 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 head bok choy (Chinese white cabbage, about 3 pounds), trimmed and chopped
- 1 package (16 ounces) frozen stir-fry vegetables, thawed and drained
- 1 tablespoon light soy sauce
What to Do
-
Heat the peanut oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add the garlic, crushed red pepper, and scallops and saute until the scallops are golden and cooked through. With a slotted spoon, remove the scallops to a bowl and cover to keep warm.
-
Add the sesame seeds and ginger to the wok and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the remaining cooking liquid from the scallops is absorbed. Add the bok choy and the stir-fry vegetables and stir-fry for 4 to 5 minutes.
-
Return the scallops to the wok and add the soy sauce. Stir-fry for 1 to 2 minutes, or until heated through. Serve immediately.
