Wash the spinach thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or grit. Shake off excess water and set aside.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.
In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and stir-fry for about 30 seconds, until fragrant. Be careful not to let the garlic burn.
Add the spinach to the skillet and toss with the garlic oil using tongs or a spatula. Stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes until the spinach is wilted but still bright green.
Season the spinach with sea salt and black pepper. Stir to combine.
Remove the skillet from the heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the spinach. Toss once more to ensure even coating.
Transfer the spinach to a serving dish and serve immediately as a side dish to accompany your Paleo meals.
