Categories     side-dish

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 bunches curly kale (about 2 1/2 pounds)
1/4 cup good olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Fleur de sel

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Arrange 3 oven racks evenly spaced in the oven.
  • Lay each kale leaf on a board and, with a small sharp knife, cut out the hard stem. Tear large leaves in half. Place the kale in a large bowl of water and wash it well. Drain the kale and dry it in a salad spinner. Dry the bowl, and put the kale back in the bowl.
  • Toss the kale with the olive oil, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Divide the kale among 3 sheet pans or roast them in batches. If you put too much kale on one pan, it will steam rather than roast and will never become crisp. Roast for 15 minutes, until crisp. Sprinkle with fleur de sel and serve hot.

Categories     Kale     Garlic     Sunday Stash     Roast     Dinner     Healthy     Vegetarian     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Sheet Pan

Yield Makes about 8 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 bunches curly kale (about 2 lb.), rinsed, ribs and stems removed, leaves torn into 1"-1 1/2" pieces
6 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 tsp. (or more) kosher salt
1/2 cup plus 2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Arrange racks in upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 325°F. Toss kale, garlic, salt, and 1/2 cup oil in a very large bowl. Divide between 2 rimmed baking sheets (it's okay to pile it on; the kale will steam and wilt as it cooks). Pour 2 Tbsp. water over each. Roast, rotating sheets and tossing halfway through, until leaves are tender and edges are crisped and slightly browned, about 20 minutes.
  • Transfer kale to a large bowl. Toss with remaining 2 Tbsp. oil. Taste and season with more salt, if needed.
  • Do Ahead: Kale can be made 1 week ahead. Transfer to an airtight container and chill.
