Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup yellow onion, small-dice (from about 1/2 medium onion)
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
1 cup brown lentils
2 cups organic free range fat free chicken broth
12 ounces swiss chard (about 1 bunch)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for seasoning
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
4 teaspoons red wine vinegar
1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled (about 2 1/2 ounces)

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and garlic, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the lentils, stir to combine, and add the chicken broth. Increase the heat to high and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the lentils are just tender and the water has evaporated, about 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, trim the ends from the chard stems and discard. Cut off the stems at the base of the leaves and slice the stems crosswise into 1/4-inch pieces. Place in a small bowl and set aside. Stack the leaves, cut them in half lengthwise, then coarsely chop into bite-sized pieces; set aside.
  • Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a large frying or straight-sided pan over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the reserved chard stems, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the chopped chard leaves, measured salt, and measured pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until wilted, about 2 minutes. Stir in the red wine vinegar and reserved lentil mixture until evenly combined. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly, about 3 minutes.
  • Sprinkle in the feta and stir to combine. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed. Serve warm or at room temperature.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I'll use less chili flakes next time.

The recipe was easy to follow but the dish turned out too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less feta cheese next time.
