   Pat the 0.5 lb shrimp and 0.5 lb scallops dry with paper towels. Season lightly with salt and pepper.

   Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat until shimmering, about 1 minute.

   Flip the seafood and add the 1 diced red bell pepper and 3 minced garlic cloves. Stir-fry for 2 minutes, until the peppers are crisp-tender and the seafood is opaque.
