Step 1
Boil salted water in a large pot, add vermicelli, and cook until just tender, ~3 minutes. Drain and set aside on a plate.
Step 2
Heat 1 tbsp chili oil in a large skillet over high heat until shimmering. Pat shrimp and scallops dry, then sear 90 seconds per side without moving. Transfer to a plate.
Step 3
Reduce heat to medium. Add remaining 2 tbsp chili oil, then ginger and garlic. Stir constantly for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 4
Add cooked vermicelli back to the skillet with soy sauce and lime zest. Toss to coat for about 2 minutes until heated through.
Step 5
Return shrimp and scallops to the skillet, toss gently, then immediately slide onto a serving plate.
Step 6
Squeeze fresh lime juice over the top and serve hot.
