- 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.

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.
