Ingredients

2 teaspoons olive oil
¼ cup pine nuts
2 cloves garlic, minced
8 cups chopped red Swiss chard
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¼ pound sliced prosciutto, chopped

Steps:

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir the pine nuts in the hot oil until they turn a light golden brown, about 2 minutes; watch carefully, they burn easily. Stir in the garlic; cook until fragrant, about 1 more minute, stirring constantly.
Mix in the Swiss chard; cook and stir until the chard has wilted, 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper. Lightly stir in the chopped prosciutto; cook and stir just until prosciutto is hot, then serve.
