Scallops and Zucchini with Black Beans
Serves 4
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons minced Chinese black beans
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 bunch scallions, sliced, white and green separated
1 pound small scallops (U-50s)
2 cups zucchini, same size dice as scallops, 1/4-inch dice
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Canola oil for cooking
Steamed white and brown rice combo
In a heavy sauté pan or wok on medium-hot heat, add canola oil to lightly coat.
When oil is hot, add the black beans, garlic and scallion whites and season.
Saute for 1 minute, then add the scallops and zucchini and toss to coat. Add
butter and stir to combine. Toss for 2-3 minutes until scallops are just cooked
through. Check flavor and season if necessary. Add the scallion greens, toss to
combine, and serve on steamed rice combo.
