1
Wash the Spinach
Thoroughly wash 10 cups of fresh spinach under cold running water to remove any dirt or grit. Drain in a colander.
2
Chop the Garlic
Peel and finely chop 3 cloves of garlic.

3
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat until it shimmers.
4
Sauté the Garlic
Add the chopped garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
5
Add the Spinach
Gradually add the washed spinach to the skillet, stirring constantly. It will wilt down significantly.
6
Season the Spinach
Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of black pepper over the spinach and continue to sauté for an additional 3-5 minutes until fully wilted.
7
Finish with Lemon Juice
Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Toss to combine.
