Here is a recipe that we love. You can vary it with chicken instead
of shrimp or change the pear with papaya. I serve this with Fried Rice and some Lumpia. I also double it for an entree. Basic recipe is meant to be a side dish.
Fresh Pear and Shrimp Stir Fry Recipe
adapted from T.C. Choy’s Asian Bistro
serves 4 as side dish
1 whole pear, peeled, cored and cut into small wedges
4 ounces thinly sliced carrots
2 tablespoons cooking oil
4 ounces snow peas
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
8 ounces shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons chicken broth
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1. Bring a saucepan of salted water to a boil. Blanch the pear wedges and carrots for 30 seconds, then drain immediately. Pat the shrimp very dry. In a small bowl, mix together the salt, sugar, chicken broth and cornstarch. Set aside.
2. Heat a wok or large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add in the cooking oil and swirl to coat. When the oil is shimmering, add the shrimp and stir fry for 1 minute. Add the grated ginger and continue stir frying for 30 seconds. Add the peas, carrots and pears and toss well. Stir fry for 1 minute. The shrimp should be just barely cooked through.
3. Pour in the chicken broth mixture, stir and let cook for an additional minute, until shrimp is cooked through. Serve immediately.

RED CHILE-CRUSTED SEA SCALLOPS WITH MANGO AND TORTILLA SALAD AND ORANGE VINAIGRETTE
Recipe courtesy of Captain Tom aka The Lack
3 tablespoons Ancho chile powder
2 tablespoons ground toasted cumin
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
18 large sea scallops, rinsed and patted dry (about 1/2 pound)
1 cup peanut or vegetable oil
Three 6-inch tortillas, preferably blue corn, cut into very thin strips
2 cups bitter or peppery greens, such as mizuna, arugula, mustard greens, or frisee
1/2 cup Orange Vinaigrette
1 large ripe mango, peeled, seeded and diced
Combine the chile powder, cumin, salt and pepper in a bowl. Set aside.
In a saute pan over high heat, heat the olive oil until it begins to smoke. Slightly dredge the scallops in the chile mixture on one side only. Place the scallops in the heated pan, chile side down, and cook for 20 seconds. Reduce the heat to low, turn the scallops, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove from pan and reserve. In a saucepan over high heat, heat the peanut oil to about 375 degrees, or until a tortilla strip sizzles when it is immersed. Fry the tortilla strips for 10 to 20 seconds, or until crisp, and drain on paper towels.
In a mixing bowl, dress the greens very lightly with the orange vinaigrette. Combine the greens, mango, and tortilla strips, being careful not to break the strips. Divide among 6 individual plates and surround each portion with 3 cooked scallops.

Heat wok or a deep 12-inch skillet over high heat until hot and add oil. Drain scallops and discard used marinade. Heat oil until it begins to smoke and stir-fry drained scallops for 1 to 2 minutes until just cooked. Remove scallops to a plate and keep warm.
Add bell peppers to wok and stir-fry 1 minute. Add broccoli rabe and stir-fry until wilted slightly and bright green, about 1 minute. Add water, tightly cover, and cook until greens are tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Add reserved marinade, stirring, until vegetables are coated well and sauce has thickened.

Great thread AlohaSteve,
I don’t want to hog it all up but I love to cook and have wrote a cookbook thru the years. I have published it [well half so far] on my web site. Click on the link below and then click on categories then click on recipes. It is a sea food cook book and I have been saving these recipes for over thirty years. I want to share them with everyone and its all free.
