Asian-Style Scallops

Scallops are marinated in a delicious Asian-inspired mix of chili-garlic sauce, rice vinegar, toasted sesame oil, and sugar for 15 minutes before serving. You’ll slice raw scallops and let them absorb the bold flavors of the marinade for a simple, no-cook dish.

Preparing the marinade and scallops

In a small bowl, combine the chili-garlic sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, sugar, and fish sauce. Place a tablespoon of the sauce on two chilled plates.

Slice the scallops into thirds and arrange six slices on each plate. Spoon a little more sauce over the scallops. Allow to marinate for about 15 minutes before serving.

  • 1 teaspoon chili-garlic sauce
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
  • ¼ teaspoon granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon fish sauce
  • 4 large sea scallops, about 6 ounces total

Step 2: Serving

Garnish with the toasted poppy seeds and cilantro leaves.
