Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 garlic clove, smashed and peeled
1 small celery stalk, chopped
Pinch of red-pepper flakes
2 heads romaine lettuce, trimmed and cut into 1-inch-wide strips (about 10 cups)
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add garlic, celery, and red-pepper flakes; saute until celery is softened and golden, about 5 minutes.
  • Add lettuce, pressing it down to fit. Season with salt and pepper. Cover; cook, tossing occasionally, until lettuce is completely wilted and liquid has evaporated, 10 to 12 minutes.
