Sinatras Spinach Recipes

Steps:

• Rinse the spinach well in cold water to make sure it's very clean. Spin it dry in a salad spinner, leaving just a little water clinging to the leaves.
• 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. 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. 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. 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. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until the oil is fragrant and is seasoned, about 2 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes, and purée. Heat to simmering, and cook on low heat until the sauce thickens, about 20 minutes.
• Add the oregano, basil and Italian seasoning, and mix well. Season with salt and pepper. Cook on low heat for another 15 minutes or so as it thickens.

Steps:

• Drain the spinach and place in a serving dish. Drizzle with the oil and toss to coat. Sprinkle with the onion.
