Sautéed Spinach Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Ingredients

   Wash the fresh spinach thoroughly under cold running water to remove any dirt or grit. Shake off excess water and set aside.

2. 2

   Mince the Garlic

   Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves. Set aside.

3. 3

   Heat the Oil

   In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat.

4. 4

   Sauté the Garlic

   Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant and lightly golden, being careful not to burn it.

   Sprinkle the salt and black pepper over the spinach and continue to sauté for about 3-5 minutes, or until the spinach is wilted and tender.
