Ingredients
- ¼ cup Japanese eggplant (sliced thin)
- 1 green onion (sliced thin)
- ½ cup snow peas
- ¼ lb fresh scallops (I prefer sea scallops over bay scallops for this recipe)
- 1 ½ tsp orange juice concentrate
- 1 ½ tsp soy sauce (can substitute Braggs liquid aminos for a gluten-free option )
- ½ tsp sriracha sauce (more if you like it spicy)
- ½ tsp ginger (peeled and minced)
- 3 tsp sesame oil
Instructions
- Put sesame oil in a pan, add eggplant, and cover with a lid. Cook over med-high heat for 4 minutes, flip the eggplant, and cook for an additional 3 minutes.
- Add green onion and cook covered for 3 more minutes.
- Add snow peas and cook uncovered for 2 min. Stir occasionally.
- Place the vegetables on a serving plate.
- In the same pan add scallops. Cook, uncovered for about 3 min (depending on size of scallops). Flip scallops, add ginger, and cook for an additional 2 min.
- Add orange juice concentrate, soy sauce, and sriracha sauce. Stir until scallops are covered and the orange juice concentrate is dissolved.
- Spoon scallops and sauce over vegetables. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve immediately.
