• Ready In: 30mins
• Ingredients: 12
• Serves: 6

ingredients

• 8 ounces Chinese egg noodles
• 1 lb large scallop, cut in half
• 1⁄4 cup yellow cornmeal
• 3 tablespoons peanut oil
• 2 teaspoons dark sesame oil
• 1 cup green onion, chopped
• 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 3 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
• 3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
• 3 tablespoons oyster sauce
• 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds

directions

1. Cook noodles as indicated on package, and drain well. I use a salad spinner to get noodles dry enough for stir-fry, I imagine this would work here as well.
2. Place corn meal in a small dish and coat the well dried scallops with it.
3. Heat 1 TBS of the peanut oil in a skillet and add the scallops. Cook 3 minutes on each side until or until they are golden brown. Remove from pan, but keep warm.
4. Heat remaining 2 TBS of peanut oil in the skillet and add noodles, patting them into an even layer. Cook them 3 minutes or until brown, shaking the pan occasionally, turn noodles and cook another 3 minutes until browned. Put noodles on serving platter.
5. Heat sesame oil add green onions, ginger and garlic, stir fry 2 minutes.
6. Stir in soy sauce, vinegar and oyster sauce and cook 1 minute, just to heat through. Drizzle the sauce over the noodles and place scallops on top.
