INSTRUCTIONS
MARINADE
In a small saucepan stir cornstarch into water to dissolve and stir in
remaining marinade ingredients. Bring mixture to a boil, whisking
constantly, and simmer, whisking, 1 minute. Cool marinade for 5 minutes.
Rinse scallops and drain. In a bowl toss scallops with half of marinade and
chill, covered, at least 1 hour or overnight. Reserve remaining marinade.
Wash broccoli rabe and drain well in a colander.
Heat wok or a deep 12-inch skillet over high heat until hot and add oil.
Heat oil until it begins to smoke and stir-fry 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. Transfer vegetables to a platter and top with scallops.
