Best 3 Creamed Spinach Steakhouse Style Recipes

STEAKHOUSE CREAMED SPINACH

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a saucepan or large skillet set over medium-high heat.
• Add spinach to the heated oil and cook for 2 minutes, or until wilted, stirring frequently.I suggest cooking the spinach in 3 batches so it fits comfortably in the skillet, and cooks evenly. Use about a teaspoon of oil with each batch.
• Remove from heat and transfer spinach to a cutting board; once it is cool enough to handle, chop up the spinach. Set aside.
• Wipe down the saucepan.
• Set saucepan over medium heat.
• Add butter to the pan and melt it. Swirl around from time to time to melt nicely and prevent from browning.
• To the melted butter add the onion and cook for 2 minutes, or until just softened.
• Sprinkle flour over the onions; cook and whisk for 2 more minutes, or until lightly browned.
• Add the milk in a slow stream while whisking; whisk until completely combined and the mixture begins to boil and slightly thicken.
• Whisk in salt, pepper, paprika, and nutmeg.
• Reduce heat to low and continue to cook for 5 minutes, whisking frequently.
• Add the chopped spinach; stir to combine and continue to cook for 5 more minutes, stirring frequently, folding in the spinach as you stir. You want to mix and stir to completely combine the spinach with the sauce.
• Remove from heat.
• Taste for salt and pepper, and adjust accordingly.
• Serve.
