Remove octopus and run under cold water to stop cooking process. place octopus and marinade in a zip lock bag, remove as much air as posssible and refrigerat for 3hrs or over night. Heat skillet on high and place marinade and octopus into the skillet, turn heat to med and saute for 5-10 min until octopi are heated through and begin crisping up. place baby spinach on a large plate and place contents of skillet directly on the sinach. Enjoy! If using mature octopus boil for 1/2 to 2 hours.
