Use a spoon to toss the greens in the oil and stock, then cover and cook for approximately 5 to 7 minutes, until it is soft and wilted, but still quite green. Remove cover and continue to cook, stirring occasionally until all the liquid has evaporated, another 1 to 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and peppers, add vinegar and toss to combine.

GARLIC KALE

• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir garlic until sizzling, about 1 minute. Add kale to the skillet and place a cover over the top.
• Cook, stirring occasionally with tongs, until kale is bright green and slightly tender, 5 to 7 minutes.

MY FAVORITE SAUTEED KALE

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat.
• Add crushed red pepper flakes, if using, and let them sizzle a bit in the oil.
• Add the garlic and cook until soft, but not colored.
• Raise heat to high, add the stock and kale and toss to combine.
• Cover and cook for 5 minutes.

LEMON GARLIC SAUTEED KALE

Steps:

• Rinse the kale, and then pull the leaves from the stems. Discard the stems or save to add to homemade stock another day. Coarsely chop kale leaves into randomly shaped pieces, about 2 inches large.
• Heat the olive oil in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil shimmers, add the garlic and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring often, until the garlic is soft, but before it browns.
• Add the chopped kale leaves, stock, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Cook, tossing the kale around the pan occasionally, until the kale turns bright green, is soft and is wilted, about 7 to 8 minutes. If before the kale is tender, the liquid evaporates, add a little bit more to the pan.
• Taste and adjust with additional salt, and then finish by stirring in the juice from half a lemon.

SAUTéED KALE WITH GARLIC

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the garlic and red-pepper flakes, and cook until the edges of the garlic turn golden brown, about 2 minutes. Add the kale in handfuls, and stir and toss with a pair of tongs, adding more as they wilt down. Season with salt and pepper, and continue to sauté for about 5 minutes. Add the chicken broth to the pot, cover with lid, and steam for 10 to 12 minutes, until the kale is very soft and tender. Remove the lid, add the lemon juice, and serve.

SAUTéED KALE WITH GARLIC AND OLIVE OIL

Steps:

• Trim the stems off the kale. Blanch the leaves in boiling salted water. Drain and refresh the leaves under cold running water. (The kale can be set aside at this point until just before you are ready to serve it.)
• Heat the oil in a skillet and saute the garlic for one minute. Add the kale, a few handfuls of leaves at a time, and saute until tender, for about 10 minutes. (Do not overcook.) Serve immediately.
