Easy Asian Collard Greens Recipes

EASY COLLARD GREENS

Steps:

• Combine collard greens, bacon, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, sugar, and cayenne pepper in a stock pot. Pour enough water over the greens mixture to cover completely. Bring the water to a boil, reduce heat to low, and cook at a simmer until the greens are tender, about 2 hours.

STIR-FRIED ASIAN COLLARD GREENS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add garlic and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add collards and toss to lightly coat with oil. Pour in broth and soy sauce. Cover, reduce heat, and steam until tender, turning every few minutes, 7 to 8 minutes total. Remove from heat, drizzle with sesame oil, and serve.

SIMPLE AND FRESH COLLARD GREENS

Steps:

• Chop your greens into 1 inch strips that are no longer than 4 or 5 inches long (or you'll be getting a mouthful of stringy greens!). (I like to cut down the middle of the leaf and then put one half on top of the other and chop into strips).
• Rinse your greens (This is an important step! The water that stays on helps these cook to perfection).
• Heat your skillet to medium and spray or add oil, and garlic if wanted. Then just add your greens (these will shrink down a lot so you can do it in a small pan) and stir just until all greens have just turned bright green, usually not more than 3~ minutes.
• Turn up to medium-hot and fry for 30 more seconds or until greens are just tender.
• Toss with salt and pepper to taste (for this amount I usually use about 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper). Serve with your favorite entree :)!

EASY ASIAN COLLARD GREENS

Steps:

• Slice out the middle hard stem of your collard greens. Stack the leaves on top of each other. Roll the leaves up together into one large roll. With a knife, slice thinly. Chop up a few more times until you have easy-to-eat-sized pieces.
• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add in the oil. Heat oil until hot, then add in sliced greens and sprinkle with salt. Cook the greens for about 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally (or until desired doneness).
• Add in the grated ginger, liquid aminos, sesame oil, and collagens powder if using. Stir to coat. Garnish with sesame seeds. Serve up warm and enjoy!
• Serving ideas: Serve over eggs, alongside your favorite Asian dish, as a side dish, or on their own.
