Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (1-pound) bunch Swiss chard
1 large garlic clove, finely chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
3 tablespoons dried currants
1/3 cup water
1 1/2 ounces feta, crumbled (1/3 cup)

Steps:

  • Cut stems and center ribs from chard, discarding any tough parts near base, then cut stems and ribs crosswise into 3/4-inch-thick slices. Coarsely chop leaves.
  • Cook garlic in oil in a 4-quart heavy pot over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until pale golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Add chard stems and ribs, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, 4 minutes. Add currants and cook, stirring, until plump, about 1 minute. Add chard leaves and water and increase heat to moderate, then cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until leaves are tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in feta.

This dish was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would use less currants next time.

This is one of my favorite recipes. It's so easy to make and it's always delicious. I love the way the chard wilts down and absorbs all of the flavors from the other ingredients.

I made this recipe for a potluck and it was a huge success! Everyone loved it. I especially liked the way the currants and feta balanced out the bitterness of the chard.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some more garlic and maybe some red pepper flakes next time.
