Ingredients

What you'll need

  • 1 lb spanakopita
  • 1 medium extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 lb lemon
  • a pinch garlic
  • 4 oz fresh oregano
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta
  • 2 tbsp kosher salt
  • to taste good finishing oil
Method

Step by step

  1. Pat the spanakopita dry and season it well so it browns instead of steaming.
  2. Get your pan hot and render the aromatics until they smell sweet and toasty.
  3. Return the spanakopita, add just enough liquid, and simmer until everything is tender.
  4. Taste, brighten with a squeeze of citrus, and plate while it is still hot.
