Aumônières of Scallops with Ginger

Ingredients:

• 10 scallops
• 1/2 tbsp. grated fresh ginger
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tbsp. soy sauce
• 2 tbsp. rice wine
• 2 tbsp. vegetable oil
• 10 wonton wrappers
• 1/4 cup green onions, sliced
• 1 tbsp. sesame oil
• Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions:

1. Clean and rinse the scallops. Pat them dry with a paper towel. Season them with salt, pepper, and ginger. Set aside.
2. In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, rice wine, minced garlic, and vegetable oil. Stir until well combined.
3. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallops and cook for about 2 minutes on each side or until they turn golden brown.
4. Add the soy sauce mixture to the skillet. Toss the scallops to coat them well.
5. Remove the scallops from the skillet and set them on a plate. Keep the sauce in the skillet and reduce it until it thickens.
6. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
7. Place the wonton wrappers on a baking sheet. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the sauce over each wrapper. Put a scallop on top of each wrapper along with some green onions.
8. Bring the four corners of the wrapper to the center and tie them into a small bundle with kitchen twine.
9. Brush the aumônières with sesame oil. Bake in the oven for about 10-12 minutes or until they turn golden brown and crispy.
10. Remove from the oven and let the aumônières cool for a couple of minutes. Remove the twine. Serve immediately.
