Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 16 ounces fresh baby spinach
  • Kosher salt to taste
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Grated Parmesan cheese optional, for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds, until you smell its aroma. Be careful not to let it brown.
  • Add the spinach and salt to the skillet. Toss the leaves gently until they are just wilted, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Remove from heat, drizzle the lemon juice over the spinach, and season with freshly ground black pepper. Serve immediately, garnished with Parmesan cheese if desired.
