Sauteed Baby Spinach With Garlic

serves 2-4
Recipe from cookthink


Cooking up garlic and spinach is all about the timing - no more than 30 seconds on the garlic or it'll start to brown, and only a few minutes for the spinach so it just wilts and is still bright green.

ingredients

3 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
2 pounds baby spinach
salt and pepper

timer

prep: 5 minutes
total: 15 minutes

tools

large saucepan
tongs

instructions

1. Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. When it's hot and shimmering, stir in the garlic slices and sauté the garlic until it becomes fragrant, about 30 seconds.

2. Add the spinach to the pan a little at a time, stirring to coat with the olive oil and garlic. When all the spinach is in the pan and has wilted some, season with a sprinkling of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the spinach is wilted but still bright green, 4-6 minutes.

This dish is easy to make and tastes good. I added a bit too much salt; I won't make that mistake again.
