Scallop and Shiitake Stir-Fry
"From Raymond Blanc. Four servings is based on serving as a starter or a light meal. Monkfish can be substituted for the scallops, and if you can't find bok choy you can use Chinese cabbage or spinach."

I haven't cooked scallops for a long time -- mostly because I was afraid I would overcook them. The timings on this dish are perfect and the end result is divine. Made and thoroughly enjoyed to celebrate the Chinese New Year.
