Time 10m

Yield Four to six servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons chicken stock or fish broth
1 1/2 pounds whole bay scallops or quartered sea scallops (see note)

1 stalk lemongrass, crushed and minced
1 shallot, finely minced
1 scallion, cut on the diagonal in 1-inch slices

Boston lettuce leaves

Steps:

  • Place the lemon juice, fish sauce, chili powder, sugar and chicken stock or fish broth in a saute pan and bring to a boil. Add the scallops and cook over high heat, stirring for about 3 minutes or until the scallops are opaque. The liquid should be considerably reduced.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more garlic and ginger next time.

This dish was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I probably won't make it again.

I substituted shrimp for the fish, and it turned out great. The lemongrass and ginger really complemented the shrimp.
