Ingredients

• 12 pieces Large shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 8 large pieces Scallops
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, minced
• 1 medium Red bell pepper, sliced
• 2 cups Broccoli florets
• 1 cup Snap peas
• 3 tablespoons Low-sodium soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
• 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 2 pieces Green onions, chopped
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the seafood by rinsing the shrimp and scallops under cold water and patting them dry with a paper towel.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, and water to form a sauce mixture. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and ginger, stirring for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the shrimp and scallops to the skillet, season with salt and black pepper, and cook for about 3-4 minutes until the seafood is opaque and cooked through. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Toss in the sliced red bell pepper, broccoli florets, and snap peas. Stir-fry for 5-6 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

Step 6

Return the cooked shrimp and scallops to the skillet with the vegetables. Give the sauce mixture a quick stir and pour it over the seafood and vegetables.

Step 7

Stir everything together for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats everything well.

Step 8

Garnish the stir-fry with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.

Step 9

Serve hot, either on its own or with a side of brown rice or quinoa for a complete meal.
