Ingredients
- 20 ounces baby spinach
- 4 ounces pancetta diced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon butter
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet to medium and add in the pancetta.
- Sauté until crisp, then remove and set aside on paper towels to drain. Leave behind the drippings from the pancetta.
- Add in the butter and garlic, then sauté for about 20 seconds, making sure you don’t brown it.
- Add in the spinach and toss using tongs. Add in the salt and pepper, continue tossing until all the spinach has wilted nicely. Cook the spinach in batches, making sure to constantly turn the spinach as it wilts.
- Add the crispy pancetta back in, toss and it’s ready to serve.

Notes
- If you can't find pancetta, you can use bacon instead. Just be sure to remove some of the fat, since your bacon will likely render more fat.
