    2 long slices ginger, finely chopped
    2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
    1 scallion, finely chopped
    1/2 cup oyster sauce
    2 tablespoons soy sauce

    1 cup hen of the woods mushrooms, florets torn
    1 1/2 cups snap peas, blanched
    1 big red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch dice
    Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
    Canola oil for cooking
    Hot rice for serving

    Put 1/4 cup oil in hot frying pan. In a large bowl, combine scallops, chopped ginger, garlic, scallions, oyster sauce, soy sauce and honey. Let marinate for one minute.

Serve over hot rice.
Wine Notes:

Tsingtao Lager

Tsingtao Brewery was founded in 1903 by German settlers in Qingdao, China. Crisp, slightly malty flavor and nutty sweet flavor that pairs well with spicy foods ands Asian cuisine. Brewed with the finest all-natural ingredients including domestically-grown hops, high quality barley and spring water from China's Laoshan mountain region. A great fit with the lobster stir-fry.

2005 Kendall Jackson Vintner's Reserve Sauvignon Blanc

88% Sauvignon Blanc, 9% Semillon, 2% Chardonnay. Aromas of lime, melon and pears. Refreshing, with a mineral quality and a surprisingly long finish. Pairs very well with the shrimp and mushroom duxelles.
