SPICY GARLIC KALE WITH SAUTEED RED PEPPERS

Spicy Garlic Kale With Sauteed Red Peppers image

This dish is as lovely to look at as it is to eat, due to its beautifully contrasting colors. It is a simple way to add zest to fresh vegetables and quickly prepare a gourmet side dish for fish, meat, or rice & beans. Steaming the kale instead of sautéing it helps it cook more quickly and maintain its bright green color.
