Ensure the spinach is thoroughly squeezed dry to prevent a watery sauce.

    Easy to follow recipe, and the results were delicious!

  • Cheyenne Keeling

    My scallops were a little rubbery after boiling. Next time, I'll just sear them quickly in a pan.

  • Hank Gulgowski

    This recipe was a huge hit! My family loved it and asked for it again the next week.

  • Manuel Emard

    Squeezing the spinach dry is key! I didn't the first time, and the sauce was too thin.

  • Rossie Cassin

    I used panko bread crumbs for extra crispiness, and it worked great.

  • Alaina Koepp

    I added a little garlic to the butter when making the cream sauce, and it was fantastic!
