Categories     main course

Time 20m

Yield 8 first-course or 4 main- course servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound bay or sea scallops
Juice of 1 lime
1 10-ounce package rice noodles
Salt
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 to 2 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons peanut or vegetable oil
1 clove garlic, green part removed, minced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh ginger
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons fresh coriander leaves, chopped

Steps:

  • Toss the scallops in the lime juice and set them aside. If using large sea scallops, cut them in half.
  • Cook the noodles in boiling salted water for three minutes. Drain and refresh them under cold running water. Place them in a bowl with the sesame oil and the soy sauce. Toss and set aside until you are ready to fry them.
  • Remove the scallops from the marinade, pat them dry and sprinkle them lightly with the flour.
  • Heat two tablespoons peanut or vegetable oil in a large skillet. Fry the noodles in a pancake, turning them over with a large spatula and scraping up any crispy bits. Place the noodles in a heated bowl and keep warm.
  • Heat the remaining two tablespoons peanut or vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet. Stir-fry the garlic and ginger, then add the scallops and brown them lightly on both sides. Season with salt and pepper. Place the scallops on top of the noodles and sprinkle with coriander. Correct seasoning and serve.

This dish was a little too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I'll use less ginger.
