Ingredients

  • 3 bunches fresh spinach, washed well, rough stems removed
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 shallots, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
  • 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the spinach and simmer for 2 minutes. Drain the spinach in a colander. Press down on the spinach with a clean kitchen towel to release all of the liquid. Remove to a cutting board and roughly chop.

Heat a large saute pan, over medium-high heat and add the butter and olive oil. When the butter has melted, add the shallots and garlic and saute until fragrant and tender. Stir in the red pepper flakes and spinach. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, to taste. Saute briefly, then add the heavy cream, nutmeg and Parmesan. Reduce the spinach mixture until it has thickened, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve.

    I made this last night and could not believe how simple and tastey it was. My husband loved it and it was all gone by the... end of the evening. It is very spicy but I LOVE spicy food so it was right up my alley. You have to give this a try!Read more

    I had never made creamed spinach before but needed something green. I found frozen spinach in the freezer and looked for... something to do with it. The Neelys never let me down. Thanks.. this was great!!!!Read more

    WOW!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    Great, great recipe. My family loved it. The only difference is I had to use frozen spinach. Don't skimp on the spices...the... freshly grated nutmeg added something to this dish. I paired it with salmon, and it was a great compliment to the fish. Would be great with filet mignon as well. Read more
