    Directions:

    1. 1
      Combine all ingredients (except shrimp and scallops) and stir gently.
    2. 2
      I generally will make the sauce the night before to allow the flavors to soak in together, but letting the sauce sit for an hour will do perfectly as well.
    3. 3
      Cook shrimp and scallops in sauce for about 10 minutes.
    4. 4
      Mix sauce with noodles and enjoy!

      Tons of flavor!!! I used lime zest instead of orange and red pepper flake instead of chili paste because that's what I had. I thickened the sauce with a little corn starch. I also added fresh garlic, zucchini, onion and tomato served over rice with some sliced avocado and more cilantro over the top. Fresh, light and fantastic!!!

      This was phenomenal! I used 2 lbs scallops (quartered) and 2 packages of Udan Asian noodles (We like lots of left-overs). I also doubled the sauce and added 1 extra teaspoon of the chili sauce. My husband said, "Honey that was really delicious. Thank you so much." So this is definitely a keeper! :o) BTW, I think this would be good with beef strips as well.

      We enjoyed the dish. We did think it needed a bit more heat. We liked the flavor but thought it lacked some of the spicy taste we were looking for. I would double the chili paste and maybe add some red pepper flakes to get the added heat. Overall a really good dish. I used soba noodles instead of the udan. Thanks for posting. :)
