Preparation Steps
Prepare the spinach
Thoroughly wash the fresh spinach under cold water to remove any dirt or grit. Remove any tough stems.
Set up the steamer
Fill a pot with about an inch of water and place a steamer basket inside. Make sure the water doesn't touch the bottom of the basket.
Steam the spinach
Bring the water to a boil, then add the spinach to the steamer basket. Cover and steam for 3-5 minutes, or until the spinach is wilted and bright green.
Season the spinach
Carefully remove the spinach from the steamer and transfer it to a serving bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice, and sprinkle with salt and minced garlic. Toss to combine.
Serve
