Preparation

  1. 1

    Prep the Seafood

    Rinse the scallops under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel. Cut the crab imitation into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Chop the Vegetables

    Julienne the bell peppers and onion. Dice the tomato.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Heat the Pan

    In a large skillet or grill pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Cook the Vegetables

    Add the chopped bell peppers and onion to the skillet. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender and slightly caramelized.

  3. 5

    Add the Seafood

    Add the scallops and crab imitation to the pan along with the cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for about 3-5 minutes until the scallops are opaque and cooked through.
