Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 pounds Swiss chard (preferably rainbow or red; from 2 bunches)
1/2 cup pine nuts (2 1/2 ounces)
1/4 cup olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup golden raisins, finely chopped
1 cup water

Steps:

  • Tear chard leaves from stems, then coarsely chop stems and leaves separately.
  • Toast nuts in oil in a wide 6- to 8-quart heavy pot over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until golden, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, then transfer with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain and season with salt.
  • Cook onion in oil remaining in pot, stirring occasionally, 1 minute, then add chard stems and cook, stirring occasionally, 2 minutes. Add raisins and 1/2 cup water and simmer, covered, until stems are softened, about 3 minutes. Add chard leaves and remaining 1/2 cup water and simmer, partially covered, stirring occasionally, until leaves are tender, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Serve sprinkled with nuts.

This recipe is a great starting point, but it's definitely customizable. I added some chopped sun-dried tomatoes and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes, and it turned out delicious.

The Swiss chard was a bit tough, even after cooking it for the recommended time. I think I'll try sautéing it for a shorter amount of time next time.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more garlic and red pepper flakes next time.

This was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try it again with fewer raisins next time.

This was a great way to use up some Swiss chard from my garden. I added a bit of lemon zest and served it with grilled chicken.
