Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil

1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes

2 bags (10 ounces each) fresh curly spinach

Coarse salt and ground pepper

2 to 3 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

Preparation

Wash spinach (tough stems removed), leaving some water clinging to leaves. In a large skillet, heat oil and pepper flakes over medium-high. Add spinach to skillet in 3 batches, stirring to partially wilt before adding next batch, and lightly sprinkling with salt and pepper. Cook briefly until completely wilted, about 4 minutes total.

Place a colander in sink; transfer cooked spinach to colander, and press out any excess liquid. Divide spinach among 4 plates, and drizzle lemon juice over top. Serve.
