Scallops

I was craving greens today but wanted to add some kind of protein so this is what I ended up with:

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 tbps oil (of choice)

1/2 tbsp coarse black pepper

1 tbsp fenugreek seeds

1/2 tsp turmeric

1/2 pound sea scallops, cut in half and then quartered

1 bag spinach, chopped

red pepper and spice, to taste

lemon juice for garnish

1.  Infuse oil with garlic, pepper, fenugreek seeds, and turmeric over medium heat.  

2. Add scallops and lightly sear.  After a few minutes, remove scallops and set aside.  

3. Add 1 bag of spinach to pan and cover.  Simmer on medium-low heat for 5 minutes or until cooked down.  Add scallops and spices back to pan and cook an additional five minutes.

4. Serve with a hint of fresh lemon juice.

So these turned out decent, especially with the buttery scallops but I think they could have been have a little sweeter.  Two things I would add next time would be tomatoes and cilantro, maybe some ginger.  

If anyone has any suggestions for your scallops, I am interested.
