Categories     Spinach

Time 10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 lbs baby spinach leaves
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
2 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon butter

Steps:

  • Rinse spinach well in cold water; dry well.
  • In a large pot, heat the olive oil and saute the garlic over medium heat for 1 minute.
  • Add all the spinach, salt, and pepper to the pot; toss with the garlic and oil.
  • Cover the pot and cook for 2 minutes.
  • Uncover, turn heat on high, and cook for another minute, stirring until all the spinach is wilted.
  • Using a slotted spoon, lift the spinach to a serving bowl and top with butter.

Tips:

  • Use the right type of spinach: For this recipe, use fresh spinach with dark green leaves and no signs of wilting. Baby spinach or regular spinach works well.
  • Prep the spinach properly: Wash the spinach thoroughly to remove any dirt or impurities, and remove the tough stems. This will make the dish more enjoyable to eat.
  • Don't overcook the spinach: Spinach cooks very quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Otherwise, it will lose its vibrant green color and become mushy.
  • Add the spinach at the end: Add the spinach to the pan last, just before serving. This will help preserve its nutrients and bright green color.
  • Adjust the amount of garlic and chili to your taste: Feel free to adjust the amount of garlic and chili peppers used in the recipe to suit your taste preferences. You can add more or less depending on how spicy you like your food.

Conclusion:

This simple yet flavorful sautéed spinach with garlic and chili is a versatile dish that can be enjoyed on its own or as a side dish.
