Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large caps Portabella mushrooms
- 5 cups Fresh spinach
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoons Red chili flakes
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Clean the portabella mushrooms with a damp paper towel and remove the stems. Slice the caps into 1/4-inch thick pieces.
Wash the fresh spinach thoroughly and pat dry using a clean kitchen towel or salad spinner.
Peel and mince the garlic cloves.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until it starts to shimmer.
Add the minced garlic and red chili flakes to the skillet. Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Add the sliced portabella mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are browned and softened.
Season the mushrooms with salt and black pepper, then add the spinach to the skillet.
Toss the spinach with the mushrooms, allowing it to wilt, which takes about 2-3 minutes.
Drizzle the lemon juice over the sautéed vegetables and give everything a final toss to combine.
Remove from heat and serve immediately as a side dish, or enjoy with crusty bread for a light meal.
