ORIENTAL-STYLE SEA SCALLOPS
Oriental vegetables combined with an interesting blend of seasonings give this light and healthy stir-fry its exotic flavor. This recipe is courtesy of the Calorie Control Council.

Serves 6

Ingredients:

  • 1-1/2 cups broccoli flowerets
  • 1 cup thinly sliced onion
  • 2 tablespoons sesame or vegetable oil
  • 1 pound sea scallops
  • 3 cups thinly sliced Napa cabbage or bok choy
  • 2 cups snow peas, ends trimmed
  • 1 cup shitake or common mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced 2 teaspoons ground star anise
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
  • 2 to 3 teaspoons light reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup cold water
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons NutraSweet Spoonful
  • 4 cups hot cooked rice

Preparation:

Stir-fry broccoli and onion 3 to 4 minutes in oil in wok or large skillet. Add scallops, cabbage, snow peas, mushrooms, garlic, anise and coriander; stir-fry 2 to 3 minutes.

Add chicken broth, vinegar and soy sauce; heat to boiling. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until scallops are cooked and vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Heat to boiling.
Mix cornstarch and cold water. Stir cornstarch mixture into boiling mixture; boil, stirring constantly, until thickened. Remove from heat; let stand 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in NutraSweet® Spoonful™, serve over rice.

NOTE: 2 teaspoons five-spice powder can be substituted for the star anise and coriander, while amounts of vinegar and soy sauce may need to be adjusted to taste.

Easy to prepare (if you purchase pre-cut vegetables, it would be a "breeze"). My husband absolutely loved it! We will definitely have many times, and will try with shrimp and chicken to compare with the scallops. From Debbie
