Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 cup long-grain white rice
1/4 cup rice vinegar
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, such as safflower
1 red bell pepper (ribs and seeds removed), thinly sliced
2 bunches scallions, white and green parts separated, cut into 2-inch lengths
2 carrots, halved lengthwise, or quartered if large, and cut into 1 1/2-inch lengths
2 teaspoons minced peeled fresh ginger
1 pound bay scallops, patted dry

THAI-STYLE SCALLOPS AND ASPARAGUS



Thai-Style Scallops and Asparagus image

Asian restaurants should pay more attention to dry Vouvrays. Like rieslings, which are frequently poured with Thai, Vietnamese and Chinese dishes, Vouvrays knit bright acidity into their alluring canvas of citric and floral aromas and flavors, sometimes kissed with spice or sugar. They are ready for action the minute the fragrances of ginger, coriander and lemon grass waft from the kitchen.This recipe follows the template for many Thai dishes: it starts with a curry paste that is heated and becomes the foundation for a stir-fry. The dish does require some shopping, though most of the ingredients have become mainstream. Asparagus cues the season.

  • Add the ginger, spring onions, mushrooms and red pepper, and stir-fry for about 3 minutes until the ginger becomes fragrant.
  • Next add the scallops and marinade, and continue stir-frying for another 3 minutes, until scallops become opaque.
  • Add the soy sauce and mix thoroughly with all the other ingredients.

SCALLOP AND VEGETABLE STIR-FRY



Scallop and Vegetable Stir-Fry image

Provided by Katherine Grasso

Categories     Ginger     Vegetable     Stir-Fry     Scallop     Fall     Bon Appétit     New Jersey

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tablespoons light soy sauce
1 teaspoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons oriental sesame oil
2 tablespoons peanut oil
6 asparagus spears, trimmed, cut into 1-inch pieces
6 mushrooms, sliced
3 green onions, sliced
1 carrot, peeled, sliced
1/2 red bell pepper, cut into matchstick-size strips
1 zucchini, sliced
3 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
1/2 pound bay scallops

Steps:

  • Mix soy sauce with cornstarch in small bowl. Heat sesame and peanut oils in wok or heavy skillet over high heat. Add vegetables, garlic and ginger and stir-fry until vegetables are crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Add scallops and stir-fry until almost cooked through, about 1 minute. Stir soy sauce mixture and add to wok. Stir until liquid boils and thickens and scallops are opaque, about 2 minutes. Transfer to platter and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use fresh scallops. Fresh scallops have a sweet, briny flavor that is perfect for stir-frying. If you can't find fresh scallops, frozen scallops are a good substitute. Just be sure to thaw them completely before cooking.
  • Sear the scallops before adding the vegetables. This will help to develop their flavor and give them a nice crust.
  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will add color, flavor, and texture to your stir-fry. Some good choices include broccoli, carrots, bell peppers, and snow peas.
  • Use a flavorful sauce. The sauce is what will bring all the flavors of the stir-fry together. You can use a store-bought sauce or make your own. If you're making your own sauce, be sure to use fresh ingredients and adjust the seasonings to your taste.
  • Serve over rice or noodles. Stir-fries are typically served over rice or noodles. This will help to soak up the sauce and make the dish more filling.

Conclusion:

Asian Ginger Scallop Stir-fry is a quick, easy, and delicious meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is packed with flavor and is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful meal, give this stir-fry a try.
