Sun-Kissed Scallop and Mango Delight: A Taste of Hawaiian

I’m excited to share a delightful new recipe with you today that’s perfect for a cozy night in with loved ones. This dish is a fusion of flavors that will transport your taste buds to a tropical paradise. I was inspired by a recent vacation to Hawaii, where the fragrant aromas of pineapple and coconut lingered in the air. Let’s dive into the details of this exotic creation!

For this unique recipe, you will need the following ingredients:
– 250g fresh scallops
– 1 ripe mango, diced
– 200ml coconut milk
– 1 red chili, thinly sliced
– Zest and juice of 1 lime
– 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
– Salt and pepper to taste

Prepare your kitchen tools before starting:

• chef’s knife
• cutting board
• skillet
• wooden spoon

Begin by searing the scallops in a hot skillet until golden brown on both sides. Remove them from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the diced mango, red chili, and coconut milk. Let the mixture simmer until the mango is soft and the flavors have melded together.

Once the sauce has thickened slightly, return the scallops to the skillet. Stir in the lime zest and juice, along with the chopped cilantro. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then simmer for a few more minutes to allow the flavors to marry.

The dish is now ready to be served! The combination of sweet mango, creamy coconut milk, and succulent scallops creates a harmony of flavors that is truly unforgettable. Each bite is like a burst of sunshine on your palate.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 700g, with 4 servings. Each serving weighs around 175g, and you can expect roughly 300 calories per serving.

As a clever tip, try adding a splash of fish sauce to the sauce for an extra umami kick. It will elevate the dish to a whole new level of deliciousness!

I encourage you to give this recipe a try and make it your own by experimenting with different herbs or spices. Let your creativity shine in the kitchen, and enjoy the culinary journey ahead!
