A Quick and Easy Stir-Fry Recipe For Any Night of the Week
I love stir-fry cooking when I want to get a meal on the table fast–and also perhaps use up odds and ends of vegetables in a tasty way that has lots of variety and nutritional power. Scallops are perfect for stir-frying as they cook so quickly, and they’re fast to defrost, too, if you happen to have some in your freezer. But the flavor of scallops is subtle enough that you don’t want to drown them out with too many spices and herbs. That’s why a simple sauce of ginger, garlic, citrus and soy works so well, and the delicate flavor of leeks instead of stronger onions are a nice choice with scallops.
