Ingredients
1 pound frozen spinach - chopped
2 tablespoons butter - unsalted
1 tablespoon fresh garlic - minced
½ teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt - or ¼ teaspoon of any other salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ cup heavy cream - plus up to ¼ cup more if needed
¼ cup parmesan cheese - grated
Preparation
Place the frozen spinach in a microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave on high just until thawed, about 4 minutes.
Place the spinach in a colander and press on it with the back of a large spoon or a spatula to remove as much liquid as possible.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
Stir in the spinach, salt, pepper, nutmeg, heavy cream, and parmesan.
Cook, stirring, just until heated through, 1-2 minutes. Serve immediately.

Should I add flour?
Flour is often used as a thickener in restaurants, making the dish not gluten-free, but it's unnecessary here. Grated parmesan thickens it well, so don’t skip it!
