This spinach is great on its own, but paired with a quick-cooking protein like flounder, you have dinner in about 20 minutes.

Ingredients

4 Servings

2

tablespoons vegetable oil, divided

1

garlic clove, finely chopped

1

teaspoon finely grated peeled ginger

1

bunch flat-leaf spinach, trimmed, coarsely chopped

1

tablespoon toasted sesame oil

1

tablespoon unseasoned rice vinegar

2

teaspoons reduced-sodium soy sauce

2

teaspoons toasted sesame seeds

Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper

4

6-oz. flounder fillets

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Heat 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and ginger and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add spinach and sesame oil and toss to coat. Cook, tossing occasionally, until spinach is wilted, about 5 minutes. Add vinegar, soy sauce, and sesame seeds; season with salt and pepper and gently toss to combine. Set aside.

    Step 2

    Heat remaining 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil in another large skillet over medium-high heat. Season fish with salt and pepper and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Serve flounder with spinach.
