Spinach with Garlic Chips - PCOS-Friendly Recipe
Nutrition per Serving
Ingredients
- 5 cloves Garlic, Peeled And Sliced Very Thin
- 3 Tablespoons Olive Oil
- 2 packages (6 Oz Each Package) Baby Spinach
- 1/2 teaspoon Kosher Salt
- Freshly Ground Black Pepper
Instructions
- Pour olive oil into a large skillet and add garlic slices. Turn on stove to medium -low heat and allow garlic and oil to heat together. Watch the garlic and stir to turn as it begins to bubble. Remove from oil with a slotted spoon as soon as it turns golden brown; do not allow to burn. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
- Pour off half the oil into a container and set aside. Add one bag of spinach to the skillet. Immediately begin turning gently with a spoon. Spinach will immediately begin wilting. Cook and stir only for one minute, adding salt and pepper to taste. Remove spinach to a plate. Add remaining oil (the oil you poured from the pan) and add remaining spinach. Repeat cooking process.
- Serve spinach immediately (it should still be slightly al dente/crisp) with the garlic chips sprinkled over the top. Divine!
