Ingredients
- 7 oz swiss chard
- 2 cloves garlic; sliced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- ¼ tsp salt
- ⅛ tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Wash the swiss chard and shake off any excess water and pat it dry as best possible with a paper towel. Prepare the swiss chard by using a sharp knife to slice along each side of the white stem to remove it from the green leaves. Once stems are removed slice them up into 1" thick pieces.
- Rough chop the swiss chard greens into about 2" x 2" pieces.
- Add a tbsp of olive oil to a pan over medium heat. Add the sliced garlic and chopped swiss chard stems and sautee for about 2-3 minutes or until the stems and garlic begin to soften.
- Toss in the swiss chard greens and mix. Then over with a lid and let steam for about 2 minutes or until the swiss chard greens become wilted.
- Remove the lid and add the salt and pepper and mix. Let sautee another minute or so and then remove. Serve hot as a side to beef, chicken, pork, lamb or turkey.
