Sautéed Spinach

Ingredients

• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 2 to 3 small garlic cloves (thinly sliced)
• 5 ounces fresh baby spinach
• fine sea salt and freshly-ground black pepper
• lemon wedge (optional)

Steps

1. 1

   Sauté the garlic. Heat olive oil in a medium sauté pan over medium heat. Add sliced garlic and cook for 1–2 minutes, stirring often, until lightly golden and fragrant.

2. 2

   Wilt the spinach. Add spinach to the pan and toss continuously with tongs until wilted, about 1–2 minutes.

3. 3

   Season and serve. Season with salt and pepper to taste. (I just use a generous pinch of each.) Feel free to add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, too, if you’d like to brighten up the flavor.

4. 4

   Serve. Serve immediately and enjoy!
