Unlike slow-cooked southern American treatments of this vegetable, this version retains the collards' vibrant color and satisfying crunch.

Categories     one pot

Time 15m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 pounds young collards, thick stems removed
2 tablespoons olive oil
9 cloves garlic, minced
Salt

Steps:

  • Wash leaves and drain, but don't dry. Stack a few leaves, with a large one on the bottom, and roll them up in a tight cylinder, so the stem runs along the length of the roll. Hold it tightly, and shave it crosswise into very thin ribbons. Cut all the greens this way.
  • In a large skillet or Dutch oven over high heat, heat the oil until shimmering, add garlic and stir. When the garlic is golden, add the collards, and cook, tossing thoroughly with tongs, until they're all dark green, tender with a little bit of crunch. Add salt to taste.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better. I'll definitely be making this dish again, but I'll adjust the seasonings to my liking.

The collard greens were a bit tough, but the sauce was delicious. I'll try cooking the collard greens for a longer period of time next time.

This dish was easy to make and very flavorful. I used kale instead of collard greens, and it turned out great. I'll definitely be making this again.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover collard greens. I added some chopped bacon to the sauce, and it was delicious. My family loved it!
