Spicy Coconut Curry Scallops
  1. Pat the scallops dry with a paper towel and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

  2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

  3. Sear the scallops for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown and opaque. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  4. In the same skillet, add a little more olive oil if needed and sauté the chopped onion until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  5. Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and sliced red bell pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until fragrant.

  6. Stir in the red curry paste, ground turmeric, and ground cumin. Cook for 1-2 minutes to release the spices' flavors.

  7. Pour in the coconut milk and beef broth, stirring to combine.

  8. Add the fish sauce and brown sugar, then bring the mixture to a simmer.

  9. Add the fresh spinach leaves to the curry sauce and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes.

  10. Return the seared scallops to the skillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, ensuring they are heated through.

  11. Stir in the fresh lime juice.

  12. Serve the spicy coconut curry scallops over cooked jasmine rice.

  13. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro.
