1
Prepare the Ingredients
Wash the fresh spinach thoroughly under cold running water to remove any dirt or grit. Drain and set aside.
2
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until it shimmers.
3
Sauté the Garlic
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute, or until fragrant. Be careful not to burn it.
4
Add the Spinach
Add the washed spinach to the skillet in batches, stirring continuously until the leaves are wilted. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
5
Season the Spinach
Once the spinach is wilted, season with salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Stir to combine and sauté for an additional minute.
6
Serve
Remove from heat and serve immediately as a side dish or incorporate into other dishes.
