Tuscan Kale with Caramelized Onions and Red-Wine Vinegar image

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 large red onion, halved and thinly sliced into half-moons
1 large garlic clove, thinly sliced
3/4 teaspoon coarse salt
2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
1 pound Tuscan kale, middle stems removed, leaves cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces

Steps:

Combine the oil, onion, garlic, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large sauté pan; cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the onion is lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook until the onion is soft, about 10 minutes.
Add the vinegar to the pan, and raise heat to medium-high. Add the kale, 1/4 cup water, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt; cook, stirring, until the kale begins to soften, about 3 minutes. As the pan becomes dry, add another 1/4 cup water, and cook until the kale is tender, about 3 minutes more. Serve immediately.
