Ingredients

• Chicken Broth

  4 oz or 113g

• Garlic

  Raw

  3 clove or 9g

• Salt

  Table

  1 dash or 0.4g

• Spinach

  Raw

  1 package (10 oz) or 284g

Directions

1. Cut off the thick stems of the spinach and discard. Clean the spinach by filling up your sink with water and soaking the spinach to loosen any sand or dirt. Drain the spinach and then repeat soaking and draining. Put the spinach in a salad spinner to remove any excess moisture.
2. Heat chicken broth in a large skillet on medium-high heat. Add the garlic and saute for about 1 minute or until the garlic is just beginning to brown and become fragrant.
3. Add the spinach to the pan, packing it down a bit if you need to with your hand. Use a couple spatulas to lift the spinach and turn it over in the pan so that you coat more of it with the olive oil and garlic. Do this a couple of times. Cover the pan and cook for 1 minute. Uncover and turn the spinach over again. Cover the pan and cook for an additional minute.
4. After 2 minutes of covered cooking the spinach should be completely wilted. Remove from heat. Pour excess broth from the pan over spinach. Sprinkle with salt to taste. Serve immediately.
