Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams fresh spinach
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Instructions
Wash the spinach thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or grit. Pat dry with a clean kitchen towel or use a salad spinner to remove excess water.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds, stirring constantly to avoid burning.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet, stirring occasionally as it begins to wilt. This should take 2–3 minutes.
Season the spinach with salt and black pepper, stirring to combine.
Once the spinach is fully wilted and vibrant green, remove the skillet from heat.
Drizzle the spinach with lemon juice for a bright, fresh flavor.
Serve immediately while warm. Enjoy!
