It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

ingredients
1/2 cup pineapple juice
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
1 lime, zest and juice only
24 large sea scallops
3 tablespoons sesame seeds
lime wedges, for garnish
directions
In a shallow dish, combine the pineapple juice, soy sauce, ginger, lime zest and lime juice. Add the scallops, turn to coat, and set aside for 30 to 40 minutes.
Build a hot charcoal fire or preheat a gas grill. Toast the sesame seeds in a small skillet over medium heat until they turn one shade darker, about 4 minutes.
Thread the scallops on four metal skewers, placing them so that the flat surfaces are exposed. Grill, turning once, until the scallops are lightly browned and no longer translucent, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, garnish with lime wedges, and serve.

Delicious! The scallops retain some of the marinade flavor but not so much as to mask their natural fresh flavor. We ended up with a lot of sesame seeds, next time we'd probably only use half the amount called for. Other than that, the recipe was perfect and definitely a keeper!
