Garlic Sauteed Spinach

1. 1

   Rinse the spinach well in cold water to make sure it's very clean.

2. 2

   Spin it dry in a salad spinner, leaving just a little water clinging to the leaves.

3. 3

   In a very large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil and saute the garlic over medium heat for about 1 minute, but not until it's browned.

4. 4

   Add all the spinach, the salt, and pepper to the pot, toss it with the garlic and oil, cover the pot, and cook it for 2 minutes.

5. 5

   Uncover the pot, turn the heat on high, and cook the spinach for another minute, stirring with a wooden spoon, until all the spinach is wilted.

6. 6

   Using a slotted spoon, lift the spinach to a serving bowl and top with the butter, a squeeze of lemon, and a sprinkling of sea or kosher salt.

7. 7

   Serve hot.
