Categories     weekday, side dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 or 3 bunches of mustard greens (about 3 3/4 pounds total; 16 cups trimmed)
8 ounces thickly sliced lean slab bacon, diced
1 large onion, diced (2 cups)
1 teaspoon chopped garlic
1 teaspoon hot red-pepper flakes
3 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup apple-cider vinegar
1/2 cup chicken stock
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Rinse greens well. Cut out stems and thick veins; tear leaves into 4- or 5-inch pieces.
  • Cook bacon in a large sauté pan until fat starts to render and bacon begins to brown. Add onion, garlic and pepper flakes and sauté until onion is soft, about 7 minutes. Add sugar, vinegar and chicken stock. Heat to boiling, add greens and cook slowly, stirring often as the greens begin to release their own liquid.
  • Reduce heat and simmer greens until tender, 10 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper.

I'm going to try this recipe with kale next time. I think it would be a good substitute for the mustard greens.

I think this recipe would be better with collard greens instead of mustard greens.

This recipe was a lot of work for not a lot of payoff. I wouldn't make it again.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my mustard greens turned out mushy.
