Fried Scallops Chinese Style image

Great as a appetizer! a little different but still all good. This is one of those recipes to use with the old timey electric woks that were so popular in the early 90's! That is where is developed from cause some nights in my early marrage then it was just easier to break out the wok than dirty up the stove and a bunch of pots etc.

EASY FRIED SCALLOPS

I experimented with some ways to cook scallops one night with my family. This was everyone's favorite and it has become a regular dish at our family fry nights. If serving as a main dish, make twice as many servings as people (about 8 scallops per person).
