Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seitan in a single layer. Cook undisturbed for 3 minutes, then stir occasionally for 3 minutes more until the edges are golden and crisp. Done when golden on several sides.
Lower the heat to medium and push the seitan to the sides of the pan. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes to the center. Cook for 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant and just beginning to turn pale gold.
Add the white beans, salt, and spinach to the skillet. Stir constantly for 2 minutes until the beans are heated through and the spinach has completely wilted into the mixture.
Turn off the heat. Stir in the lemon juice and black pepper, tossing to coat everything evenly.
