Yield Makes 2 main-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 ounces sweet Italian turkey sausage (about 2 links), casings removed, sausage finely crumbled
1/2 cup chopped peeled carrot
1/2 cup chopped onion
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/3 cups dried lentils
1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon fennel seeds
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
2 1/2 cups (or more) water
1 pound Swiss chard (about 1 large bunch), thick stems and ribs cut away and discarded, leaves coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Sauté sausage in large deep nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until cooked through, about 6 minutes. Drain any excess fat from skillet. Add carrot, onion and garlic to skillet; sauté until vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Stir in lentils, bay leaf, fennel seeds and rosemary. Add 2 1/2 cups water and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer until lentils are almost tender, about 20 minutes.
  • Place Swiss chard atop lentils; cover and cook until lentils are tender and chard is wilted and tender, adding more water if mixture is dry, about 7 minutes. Stir to blend. Season with salt and pepper. Discard bay leaf.

I didn't have any Swiss chard, so I used spinach instead. It worked out just fine.

The lentils were a bit undercooked for my taste. I think I would cook them for a few minutes longer next time.

I found this dish to be a bit too oily. I think it would have been better if I had used less olive oil.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning.
