1
Wash the Spinach
Thoroughly rinse the fresh spinach leaves under cold water to remove any dirt or grit. Drain well in a colander.
2
Mince the Garlic
Peel and mince the garlic cloves finely using a knife or a garlic press.

3
Sauté the Garlic
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
4
Add Spinach
Gradually add the washed spinach to the skillet, stirring continuously until it begins to wilt, about 2-3 minutes.
5
Season the Spinach
Sprinkle the red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper over the spinach. Stir to combine and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
6
Finish with Lemon Juice
Remove the skillet from the heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the seasoned spinach. Toss to combine evenly.
