LEMON-GARLIC GREENS SAUTE



Lemon-Garlic Greens Saute image

This recipe is so simple I almost decided not to post it, but it's definitely my go-to side dish when I want fast, delicious greens. I like to use collard greens and kale in this, but you could also use just one or the other or mustard greens & chard as well (I wouldn't recommend spinach for this because it will cook down too much). I also like this with red wine vinegar and liquid smoke in place of the lemon juice. Be careful not to add freshly washed (still wet) greens to hot oil -- you'll get fireworks.

Categories     Collard Greens

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 bunch collard greens (about 5 c chopped)
1 bunch kale (about 5 c chopped)
1/3 cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
3 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Roughly chop the greens and wash them thoroughly.
  • To a large saucepan or Dutch oven add the olive oil, garlic and as much of the greens as will fit (you may need to let the first batch cook down a little to fit the rest of the greens in the pan).
  • Once all of the greens are in the pan, cook uncovered for 15 minutes or until greens are tender, tossing frequently.
  • Once the greens are softened and slightly browned, add the lemon juice and saute an additional 2 minutes.
  • Serve warm.
