Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 grams fresh spinach
- 4 large garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Instructions
Wash the spinach thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris and pat it dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Peel and mince the garlic cloves finely.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil, allowing it to become hot but not smoking.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the fresh spinach to the skillet. Stir well to combine with the garlic and olive oil.
Season the spinach with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Stir continuously for about 2-3 minutes until the spinach is wilted and tender.
If desired, add the soy sauce to the skillet and stir to incorporate. Cook for an additional 30 seconds to blend the flavors.
Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the stir-fried spinach to a serving dish.
Serve immediately as a side dish or a light keto-friendly main meal.
