A super quick side that's good for you and tastes fabulous. It always amazes me how much spinach wilts - so this is a great way to consume ALOT of good nutrition with just a few bites! A terrific side for meaty mains. Try a classic steakhouse dinner with Prime Rib or steak, Paris Mash and this Sautéed Spinach!

Time 9m

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 bunches spinach ((Note 1))
1 tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves (, finely chopped)
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Trim the stem from the leaves, then wash the leaves very well (spinach often holds a lot of dirt).
  • Shake off excess water but do not dry (water droplets helps steam-cook the spinach).
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add garlic and cook for 20 seconds until it becomes light golden and smells amazing.
  • Add spinach, then use tongs or 2 wooden spoons to toss until the spinach wilts - about 2 minutes. I like mine just wilted.
  • Remove from heat immediately and sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss once more.
  • Transfer to serving platter and serve.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

Kosher salt
3 large bunches spinach, washed and trimmed
3 cloves garlic, chopped
Extra-virgin olive oil, for sauteing and serving
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  • Cut the thickest stems off the greens and rinse the leaves well in the sink using lots of fresh water.
  • Add the spinach in the water and blanch them, stirring continuously for about 1 minute, then strain them and rinse immediately with cold water so they stop cooking.
  • When the greens are cool enough to handle, squeeze all the water out of them and lay them on a cutting board where you'll randomly chop them in big sections.
  • In a large pan, over a medium-high heat, quickly saute the garlic in a couple of tablespoons olive oil, then add the greens. Quickly toss around the greens, adding a sprinkle more olive oil, if needed.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve it up! You want to preserve the crunchy bite of the fresh vegetable.
