Provided by Cookie and Kate

Categories     Side dish

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 large bunch (about 10 ounces) collard greens
1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
2 medium cloves garlic, pressed or minced
Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional, scale back or omit if sensitive to spice)
A couple lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • To prepare the collards: Cut out the thick center rib out of each collard green. Stack the rib-less greens and roll them up into a cigar-like shape. Slice over the "cigar" as thinly as possible (⅛″ to ¼″) to make long strands. Shake up the greens and give them a few chops so the strands aren't so long.
  • Heat a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat, then add the olive oil. Once the oil is shimmering, add all of the collard greens and the salt.
  • Stir until all of the greens are lightly coated in oil, then let them cook for about 30 seconds before stirring again. Continue stirring in 30-second intervals until the greens are wilted, dark green, and some are starting to turn browns on the edges (this is delicious). This will take between 3 to 6 minutes.
  • Once the collards are just about done, add the garlic and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir to break up the garlic and cook until it's fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove the pan from the heat.
  • Immediately divide the cooked collards onto plates, and serve with a lemon wedge each.

3 strips bacon, diced
1 medium onion, sliced
2 bunches collard greens, washed
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes

SIMPLE AWESOME COLLARD GREENS



Simple Awesome Collard Greens image

I make these all of the time. They're super simple and taste great! Please let me know what you think!

Provided by Haribol

Categories     Collard Greens

Time 15m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 bunch collard greens, washed and cut
2 tablespoons coconut oil (or enough so that the greens won't burn)
salt
pepper
1/8-1/4 fluid ounce balsamic vinegar (splash)

Steps:

  • Wash and cut all of the collard greens into bite size pieces (about 2" x 2").
  • Heat some coconut oil in a tall pot until it's hot but NOT smoking hot.
  • Add the collard greens and stir. CAUTION: the collard greens will splatter in the oil when they are first put in, so be careful.
  • Stir and continue to cook until the greens wilt down.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Cook until done and at the very end add a splash of balsamic vinegar. Be sure and stir as the balsamic vinegar can burn. You don't need much of the vinegar.
  • Note: This is a good base recipe to experiment with. The greens are also good when cooked with ginger and tamari, or you can add a mix of balsamic vinegar, orange juice, and hot pepper at the end. I have done all of these and they all taste great. I think the coconut oil really does a lot for the greens.
