1 bunch red swiss chard washed and leaves sliced from stems
2 Tbsp olive oil, extra virgin
1/4 small red onion chopped coarsely
pine nuts (sprinkled)
1/4 bunch fresh asparagus

Steps:

  • 3. Heat olive oil in saute pan (medium heat). Add chopped chard stems, onions and asparagus. Saute for about 3 minutes. Add chopped garlic, pine nuts and Marsala wine. Saute for additional minute or until asparagus is tender but al dente. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • 4. Remove leaves from bowl (do not drain). Add to saute pan and cover. Cook for 3 minutes. (do not remove cover while steaming)
  • 5. Uncover saute pan and stir for one more minute. (Do not cook all the juice/moisture away.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning.

I'm not a huge fan of Swiss chard, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try. I'm glad I did because it was actually really good! The Swiss chard was cooked perfectly and the lemon-butter sauce really helped to brighten up the flavor.
