A delightful and healthy steamed spinach recipe infused with fresh herbs and a tangy twist.
Fill a large pan with water up to the steamer insert level and bring it to a boil.
Ensure the water level is not too high to avoid touching the steamer basket.
Place the spinach, parsley, and thyme in the steamer basket and position it over the boiling water.
Mix the greens and herbs gently to ensure even steaming.
Cover the pan, reduce the heat to medium-low, and steam for 3 minutes or until the spinach is wilted.
Check the spinach halfway through to avoid overcooking.
Carefully remove the steamer basket and let the spinach drain.
Use tongs to handle the hot steamer basket safely.
Transfer the steamed spinach to a serving bowl and drizzle with balsamic vinegar. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Toss the spinach gently to distribute the seasoning evenly.
Garnish with lemon wedges and serve immediately.
Serve the dish warm for the best flavor and texture.
