SWISS CHARD WITH OLIVES RECIPE image

Categories     Vegetable

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 ounce green pitted green olives (about 10 medium sized), roughly chopped or sliced
1/2 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary
1 green onion or shallot, chopped
1/2 teaspoon capers
Olive oil
1 large bunch of Swiss chard, rinsed and patted dry
Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • 1 Mix together the olives, rosemary, green onion, and capers with a tablespoon of olive oil and let sit while you prep the chard. 2 Use a knife to cut along the edges of the main stem of each leaf of chard, remove the stems. Cut the stems into 1/2-inch slices and set aside. Cut the leaves separately into 1-inch thick crosswise ribbons. Keep the leaves and the stems separate as you will be cooking them separately. 3 Heat a large, stick-free sauté pan on medium high heat. Coat the bottom of the pan with about a tablespoon of olive oil, just enough to coat. When the oil is hot, add the chard stems. Cook for a couple of minutes, stirring often, until they begin to soften. Then stir in the olive mixture. Cook for a minute more, then add the chopped chard leaves to the pan. Use tongs or two large spoons to toss the chard leaves in with the rest of the mixture, so that the chard gets coated with olive oil. 4 Cover the pan and reduce the heat to low. Let cook a few minutes, lift the cover every once in a while to turn the leaves over in the pan. Once the chard has all wilted, remove from heat. Sprinkle with black pepper to taste.

I'm a vegetarian, so I omitted the bacon from this recipe. It was still very flavorful.

I'm allergic to olives, so I substituted them with capers. It was still delicious!

This recipe was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less olives next time.

The chard was a bit overcooked, but the flavors were still good. I'll try cooking it for less time next time.
