Instructions
Saute onion and bell pepper pieces in oil on medium heat until soften, but not mushy. You may add just a small amount of salt to allow these to sweat.
Add peeled and cleaned shrimp, scallop, and Holy Basil Chili Sauce. Stir together, cover and let sweat, stirring about two times until shrimp is pink and scallop is cooked through; about 7-10 minutes. The steam formed will create a sauce within the pot. Do not over cook, or shrimp will become tough. Holy Basil Chili Paste can be found at local Asian Grocery Stores, or it can be made at home.
