Thai-Flavored Scallops With Green Beans Recipe
Ingredients
1/4 lb (340 g) sea scallops or peeled shrimp
2 cups (480 ml) green beans, chopped
2 tbs (30 ml) Peanut Oil
1 small jalapeno pepper, chopped finely
1/2 red bell pepper, cut into strips
1 tbs (15 ml) Garlic Oil
1/3 cup (80 ml) loosely packed chopped fresh cilantro or 1/2 tsp (3 ml) Pesto Oil
Directions
Peel off tough muscle on one side of scallops, if present; pat scallops dry between paper towels.
Place beans in microwave dish.
Add 2 tbs water; cover and cook on high for 8 minutes.
Drain off water.
Heat skillet until very hot; if skillet is not hot enough, scallops will give off water and boil instead of browning.
Add peanut oil and stir-fry scallops just until they are no longer translucent; remove from skillet and set aside.
Add jalapeno, beans, red pepper and garlic oil; stir-fry for 2 minutes.
Return scallops to skillet; sprinkle with cilantro or pesto oil and toss all ingredients for an additional 1/2 minute.
