This dish can be prepared in the microwave or over the stove in a skillet. See the chef’s note for
directions to make it in the microwave. It is simple, quick, and high in vitamins C and A!
1. Heat the olive oil or butter (or a combination of both) in a large skillet over medium heat.
2. Once heated, add the spinach, one handful at a time. Stir the spinach and allow it to wilt
down before adding another handful. Repeat until all spinach has been added and wilted
down.
3. Push spinach out of the center of the pan; add garlic to the center and saute for 1 minute
until the garlic becomes fragrant (but not burned).
4. Add lemon juice to the skillet and stir to thoroughly combine. Serve hot.
Chef’s Note: To microwave this recipe, simply add the spinach to a large microwavable dish.
Place butter, garlic, and salt in the dish. Cover with plastic wrap and steam in the microwave
for 2 minutes or until the butter has melted and the spinach has wilted. Remove the plastic
wrap and toss to combine. Serve hot.
