1 pound Swiss chard
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic, sliced

Rinse the Swiss chard. Leave any water clinging to it. Chop it fine.
Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the garlic, saute for a minute or so, then add the Swiss chard. Cook, stirring, until the Swiss chard begins to wilt. Cover the pan and cook over low heat for about 15 minutes.
