How to Make Chili Seafood Stir Fry

  1. Combine 200g seafood (prawns and/or scallops), 1/2 tsp black pepper, 1 tsp five-spice powder, 1-2 tbsp chili flakes (adjust to taste), 2 cloves minced garlic, and 1 tbsp grated ginger in a bowl.
  2. Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir-fry seafood in batches until cooked through (about 2-3 minutes per batch), then remove and set aside.
  3. Add 1 tbsp vegetable oil to the wok. Stir-fry 1 red bell pepper (sliced), 1 green bell pepper (sliced), until slightly softened (about 3-4 minutes). Add 1 cup bean sprouts, 1 cup asparagus spears (cut into 1-inch pieces), and 1/2 cup frozen peas. Stir-fry for 1 minute.
  4. Return the cooked seafood to the wok. Add 2 tbsp soy sauce and 1 tbsp brown sugar. Stir-fry until heated through and vegetables are tender-crisp (about 2 minutes). Stir in 1 tbsp chopped chives, reserving the rest for garnish.
  5. Serve immediately. Garnish with remaining chives.
