Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality scallops. Look for scallops that are plump and have a slightly briny smell. Avoid scallops that are slimy or have a strong odor.
  • Use a large skillet or wok for stir-frying. This will help to ensure that the scallops and vegetables cook evenly.
  • Heat the oil over high heat before adding the scallops. This will help to sear the scallops and prevent them from sticking to the pan.
  • Stir-fry the scallops for only a few minutes, until they are cooked through. Overcooking will make the scallops tough and rubbery.
  • Add the vegetables to the pan and stir-fry for a few more minutes, until they are tender-crisp.
  • Season the stir-fry with salt, pepper, and your favorite Asian-inspired sauce. Some popular options include soy sauce, oyster sauce, and hoisin sauce.
  • Serve the stir-fry immediately over rice or noodles.

Conclusion:

Stir-fried scallops with mixed vegetables is a quick, easy, and delicious meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The scallops are cooked to perfection and the vegetables are tender-crisp. The dish is also packed with flavor, thanks to the Asian-inspired sauce. If you are looking for a healthy and flavorful seafood dish, this stir-fry is a great option.
