Tangerine Sesame Noodles With Scallops Recipes

SESAME-GINGER PASTA WITH SHRIMP AND SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients (except shrimp and scallops) and stir gently.
• 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.
• Cook shrimp and scallops in sauce for about 10 minutes.
• Mix sauce with noodles and enjoy!

Flip with spatula and cook 2 more minutes, until second side is golden brown. Add soy sauce mixture to pan and bring to a simmer, for 2 minutes, until sauce thickens and scallops are cooked through and have an opaque color.
• Serve half of the scallops over all of the cellophane noodles and top with scallions. Reserve remaining scallops for salad, if desired.
