Easy Garlic Sauteed Spinach

🧂 Ingredients

• 1 lb spinach

  baby spinach has tender more mellow leaves but use any type you have
• 1 Tbsp olive oil

  or other cooking oil
• 1 Tbsp butter
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions

• 1 Wash the spinach leaves well and pat them dry. But don't worry about getting
  them completely dry. Also, mince the garlic (if you need help, check my how to
  cut garlic tutorial [https://www.alphafoodie.com/how-to-prepare-garlic/]).
• 2 Add the butter and olive oil to a large skillet and heat over medium. Add the
  garlic and cook for about a minute – until it starts to turn yellow. 
• 3 Add the spinach leaves, stir, cover, and cook for 3-4 minutes until they are
  wilted. Based on their size and how much you are cooking, adjust the timing if
  needed.
• 4 Remove the lid and cook for a further 1-2 minutes to evaporate any excess
  moisture.
• 5 Add the salt and pepper to taste and stir with a squeeze of lemon juice. Serve
  hot.
