Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup Swiss chard stalks, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
1 (5 ounce) package dry vermicelli pasta
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
ΒΌ large onion, chopped
2 garlic scapes, sliced
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Cook the Swiss chard stems in boiling water until tender, 10 to 15 minutes; drain and rinse with cold water. Set aside.
  • Bring a separate large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Cook the vermicelli pasta in boiling water until tender yet firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes; drain.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter with the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; stir in the onion and garlic scapes. Cook and stir until the onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high, stir in the chard stalks, and cook until the onion has browned, about 5 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper; stir in the cooked pasta to serve.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The flavor was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it better with some added cheese or meat.
