SWISS CHARD WITH GARLIC



Swiss Chard with Garlic image

This is a very simple recipe for Swiss chard. I like to use the whole vegetable but you need to saute the stems and the leaves separately as the stems take longer. This won't make a lot as the chard will wilt, so if you love chard, think about doubling the recipe.

GARLICKY SWISS CHARD



Garlicky Swiss Chard image

There's really no secret to making excellent sautéed greens: just good olive oil, salt, loads of garlic and a jolt of red pepper flakes. This method works with pretty much any green too - broccoli, broccoli rabe, kale, spinach, collards, brussels sprouts or green beans - so you've really no excuse not to get your daily dose of vegetables. Serve it as a side to any roasted or grilled meat, or over a mound of creamy polenta that's been crowned with a fried egg.

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 1/2 pounds red and/or green Swiss chard (about 4 large bunches)
1/4 cup olive oil (preferably extra-virgin)
8 large garlic cloves, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Cut thick stalks and ribs from chard leaves. Chop stalks and ribs into 1/2-inch pieces. Cook stalks and ribs in large pot of boiling salted water until tender, about 5 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer stalks and ribs to plate. Add chard leaves to boiling water in pot. Cook just until wilted, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes. Drain well. Squeeze excess moisture from chard leaves. Coarsely chop leaves.
  • Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté until golden, about 2 minutes. Add chard stalks, ribs and leaves to skillet and sauté until liquid evaporates and mixture is heated through, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose tender Swiss chard: Look for leaves that are deep green and not wilted. Avoid leaves that are yellow or have brown spots.
  • Wash the Swiss chard thoroughly: Rinse the leaves under cold water to remove any dirt or debris.
  • Remove the tough stems: Cut the stems off the leaves. You can either discard the stems or chop them up and add them to the dish for a bit of extra texture.
  • Slice the Swiss chard: Cut the leaves into thin strips. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Use a large skillet: A large skillet will give the Swiss chard plenty of room to cook without overcrowding.
  • Heat the skillet over medium-high heat: This will help to sear the Swiss chard and prevent it from becoming limp.
  • Add the Swiss chard and cook until wilted: Stir the Swiss chard frequently so that it cooks evenly. It should take about 5 minutes for the Swiss chard to wilt.
  • Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute: The garlic will add a delicious flavor to the Swiss chard.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste: Add salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as red pepper flakes or lemon juice, if desired.
  • Serve immediately: Sautéed red Swiss chard is a delicious and healthy side dish that can be served with a variety of main courses.
