Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bok Choy

    Wash and chop the bok choy into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Curry Sauce

    In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in the Thai red curry paste and cook for another minute. Pour in the coconut milk, add lime juice, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  3. 3

    Sear the Scallops

    Pat the scallops dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over high heat. Once hot, add the scallops and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.

  4. 4

    Combine and Serve

    Add the bok choy to the curry sauce and cook for another 2-3 minutes until wilted. Plate the scallops and pour the curry sauce with bok choy over them. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve.
