This dish is a great way to get your daily dose of seafood and vegetables. The scallops are a good source of protein and omega-3 fatty acids, and the asparagus is a good source of vitamins and minerals.

I'm not a huge fan of seafood, but I really enjoyed this dish. The scallops were cooked perfectly and the asparagus was crisp and flavorful. The ginger-soy sauce was also very tasty.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. The scallops were cooked well, but they were a little lacking in flavor. The asparagus was also a bit too crunchy for my liking.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my dish didn't turn out as well as I expected. The scallops were tough and the asparagus was mushy. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This dish was good, but not great. The scallops were a little overcooked and the asparagus was a bit too crunchy. The ginger-soy sauce was tasty, but it didn't really complement the seafood and vegetables very well.
