Drain again, reserving 1 tablesooon of oil.

Again, return reserved oil to wok.

Stir-fry garlic and ginger several seconds and add chicken broth, dry sherry, salt, pepper and cornstarch mixture.

When it thickens, return scallops and vegetables to wok and allow them to become hot.

Serve.

Note: Make sure all sand is removed from scallops so they are not gritty.

Make certain cooking oil is fresh so scallops remain white.

Well, sounds interesting but this is not a "paella" (paella names come form the reciepient used and NEVER is made at the owen), neither the typical way how we cook the rice here in Barcelona. Sorry to sound too "purist" but I had to say it.
