In a large skillet, melt butter and oil over medium heat until the mixture stills and the bubbling subsides. This clarifies the butter, creating a richer flavor. (Approximately 3-4 minutes)

Add the spinach to the skillet. Working in batches if necessary, cook and stir until the leaves wilt down significantly and are about 1/4 of their original size. The spinach should be dark green and tender, with some crispy edges. (Approximately 5-7 minutes)
Ensure the spinach is thoroughly dry before adding it to the skillet to prevent steaming instead of frying.
For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes along with the garlic.
Serve immediately as a vibrant side dish. Pairs perfectly with grilled meats or fish.
