  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  • 6 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice (from about 3 limes)

  • Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 1/3 cup soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 jalapenos (preferably red), minced

  • 1 pound spinach, rinsed, stemmed and roughly chopped

Directions

1. Rinse the onions under cold water, then drain. Toss the onions with 2 tablespoons lime juice, the oil, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Let stand until softened, 5 minutes.2. In another bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sugar, jalapenos and the remaining 4 tablespoons lime juice. Stir in the chopped herbs. Add the portobellos and half the sesame seeds and gently mix until well coated with the marinade. Let stand until softened, about 6 minutes, tossing occasionally to better incorporate the marinade.

Notes

Always rinse spinach well to remove the sand that lurks in its creases. Fill a big bowl with cold water. Add the spinach, swish it gently with your hands and wait a minute to let the grit settle to the bottom. Lift the spinach from the water, leaving the grit behind. Dry the leaves in a salad spinner or gently roll between 2 clean kitchen towels.
