Easy Saute Swiss Chard

Easy Saute Swiss Chard


1. Soak the chard in a sink full of cool water. Strip the leaves off the chard by holding the thick part of the steam with one hand, wrap other hand around the leaf and almost make a fist, pull down on the leaves to strip from stem. Cut the stem pies into about 3" long chunks and then julienne those lengthwise until you get a bunch of long thin slices of steam. Set aside. Slice leaves into 1 inch wide strips. Put cut leaves in salad spinner and dry.

2. Heat skillet on medium to medium high.

3. Add butter to melt.

4. Add garlic, hot peppers and shallots. Brown, stirring often, don't let burn, about 2 minutes.

5. Add stems and saute. Add broth/wine if pan gets dry. Cover and cook for 3-4 minutes.

6. Add salt and pepper to taste.

7. Add leaves in batches and wilt. Add liquid if pan gets dry. When all leaves are wilted, cover and cook for 2 minutes.

8. Serve with lemon slices and cheese, to taste.
