This recipe takes very few ingredients and only a few minutes to put together! This healthy blend of bok choy and scallops would go great over some steamed rice. Slightly adapted from a Chatelaine recipe. Enjoy!

Time 17m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 baby bok choy, quartered
16 sea scallops or 40 bay scallops
1/8 teaspoon salt
4 teaspoons butter
1/2 cup Thai sweet chili sauce
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar

Steps:

  • Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. When hot, spray with oil. Add bok choy (it will cook down). Stir often until tender-crisp, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove to a platter and tent with foil to keep warm.
  • Meanwhile, pat scallops dry, sprinkle with salt and season with fresh pepper.
  • Melt butter in pan over medium. Add scallops (in 2 batches if necessary). Cook 2 minutes and flip to cook other side for 1 to 2 more minutes. If butter turns dark, turn heat down slightly. Only cook for 1 minute per side if using the small scallops.
  • Remove scallops to platter, on top of bok choy and tent with foil.
  • Add sweet chili sauce, water and vinegar to pan. Boil, stirring until thickened slightly, about 1 to 2 minutes. Pour sauce over scallops and bok choy. Serve with rice.
