1. 1

   Marinate the scallops with Shaoxing wine, white pepper, and cornstarch for 10 minutes.

   Add the marinated scallops and stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until opaque and lightly seared. Remove and set aside.

   Stir in the cornstarch slurry gradually to thicken the sauce. Cook for 1 minute until thickened.

   Return the scallops and toss briefly to combine. Serve immediately.
