Best 4 Sauteed Fresh Spinach Recipes

SAUTEED CHICKEN BREAST WITH FRESH SPINACH PASTA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add linguine and cook until a little less than al dente, about 8 minutes. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil and 1 tablespoon of butter, heat until the butter is melted. Then add the chicken breasts, skin side down and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until lightly colored.
• When done, transfer chicken breasts to a plate and set aside. Discard any fat from your skillet. Now, to the skillet add 2 tablespoons of butter, heat until butter is melted. Add onion, celery, carrots and salt and pepper. Cook, stirring until vegetables are softened, about 3 minutes. Return chicken to the skillet, add rosemary, and bay leaf and cook, covered over moderately low heat for 5 minutes more or until chicken is cooked through but still slightly springy to the touch. Again, remove chicken from the skillet and transfer to a plate, pouring any remaining juice into the skillet and set aside. Now, prepare the sauce. To the same skillet add madeira and chicken broth, cook until reduced by half. Then add heavy cream and reduce until sauce is lightly thickened. Drain and pat dry linguine and transfer to a serving plate and toss with remaining tablespoon of butter. Top with chicken breasts. To the sauce add minced fresh herbs, taste for seasoning, adding salt, pepper and lemon juice to taste. Gently pour sauce over linguine and chicken, making sure to evenly coat the entire surface. Serve immediately.

SAUTEED FRESH SPINACH

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add garlic; saute until it just begins to take on color, about 30 seconds. Add spinach, and toss well, coating with oil.
• Cook the spinach, tossing frequently, until the leaves turn bright green and have slightly wilted, about 2 minutes. Season spinach with salt, and drizzle the balsamic vinegar over the spinach; serve immediately.

THAI COCONUT CURRY HALIBUT WITH FRESH SAUTEED SPINACH RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• In a deep 10-inch skillet heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Use tongs to toss the spinach. Once warm, add in the spinach and allow to begin to "wilt" (the spinach pile will begin to reduce). Once it starts to wilt season with a pinch of kosher salt and coarse black pepper. Remove the wilted spinach to a clean bowl and set aside. Note: I prefer to to make the spinach in a separate cast iron skillet, and the fish in another skillet. I don't mind cleaning two skillets, and I am better able to keep everything hot and ready to serve at the same time. Wipe the skillet out with a paper towel (if using one skillet) and add in the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Reduce the heat to medium and sauté the shallots until slightly golden around the edges. About 5 minutes. Stir in the Thai red curry paste and then pour in 1-1/2 cups of chicken broth, the can of lite coconut milk and a 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt. Stir, bring to a simmer and reduce by half. Note: If using the fresh lemon grass, cut off the root end and trim off the tips. Using the blunt end of a knife, "bruise" the lemon grass by pounding it a bit. Set into the broth to infuse with it's delicious lemony fragrance. Season the fish fillets with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Next place the seasoned, skinless fish fillets into the coconut curry broth and spoon some of the broth over top. Cover the pan and let the fish poach for about 7 to 8 minutes or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Remove the lemongrass, with tongs and toss. Meanwhile combine the chopped cilantro, parsley, sliced green onions and cut the lime in half. Reserve 1/4 cup for garnishing. Divide the spinach among four shallow bowls, top with the fillets. Quickly add the chopped cilantro/parsley/green onion mixture to the coconut curry broth, squeeze in the entire lime, stir and ladle over the fish and spinach. Serve with cooked Jasmine Rice.
