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.
