Guest guest Posted May 2, 2007 Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 Easiest Silken Greens Saute 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 1 medium onion, minced 1/2 apple peeled and diced salt and freshly ground black pepper 2 large cloves garlic, minced leaves from 1 pound kale or chard, washed, dried and chopped about 1 1/2 cups water Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high. Stir in onion, sprinkling with salt and pepper, and saute to golden, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic, apple and greens, and cook over medium to medium-low until wilted. Add 1/2 cup water and continue cooking uncovered over medium to medium-low heat 5 to 10 minutes, or until almost dry. Stir in another 1/2 cup water and repeat process, cooking chard slowly. Add the last 1/2 cup, simmering 5 minutes. Taste to see if very tender. If not, cook in a little more liquid. Greens should be moist but not soupy when done. Cover and hold up to an hour. Serve warm or hot. Serves 2 to 4 and reheats well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
