Steamed Chinese Cabbage and Scallops with Garlic Butter Soy Sauce Steamed Chinese Cabbage and Scallops with Garlic Butter Soy Sauce
I was looking for a new way to eat Chinese cabbage. That's when I combined it with scallops, which actually tasted great!I used fresh scallops. You only need to steam them for a short time. Since the Chinese cabbages release a lot of moisture, I think you'd feel this dish is lightly flavored. If this is the case, try adding some soy sauce to suit your taste.
