1
Prepare the Spinach
Wash the fresh spinach thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or grit. Drain well and set aside.
2
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until shimmering.
3
Sauté the Garlic
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds, until fragrant but not browned.
4
Add the Spinach
Add the washed spinach to the skillet. It may seem like a lot, but it will wilt down significantly.
5
Season and Cook
Sprinkle the salt and black pepper over the spinach. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 3-5 minutes, or until the spinach is wilted and tender.
6
Finish with Lemon Juice
Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the sautéed spinach. Toss to combine before serving.
