Best 5 Yummy Sauteed Kale Recipes

SAUTéED KALE

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large sauté pan set over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Add garlic, and cook until soft.
• Add kale to the pan, turn the heat to high and add the stock. Use a spoon to toss the greens in the oil and stock, then cover and cook for approximately 5 to 7 minutes, until it is soft and wilted, but still quite green. Remove cover and continue to cook, stirring occasionally until all the liquid has evaporated, another 1 to 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and peppers, add vinegar and toss to combine.

LEMON GARLIC SAUTEED KALE

Steps:

• Rinse the kale, and then pull the leaves from the stems. Discard the stems or save to add to homemade stock another day. Coarsely chop kale leaves into randomly shaped pieces, about 2 inches large.
• Heat the olive oil in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil shimmers, add the garlic and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring often, until the garlic is soft, but before it browns.
• Add the chopped kale leaves, stock, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Cook, tossing the kale around the pan occasionally, until the kale turns bright green, is soft and is wilted, about 7 to 8 minutes. If before the kale is tender, the liquid evaporates, add a little bit more to the pan.
• Taste and adjust with additional salt, and then finish by stirring in the juice from half a lemon.

SAUTEED KALE

Steps:

• Coat a large saute pan with olive oil and add the garlic cloves and crushed red pepper. Bring the pan to a medium heat and cook the garlic until it gets golden and very aromatic. Remove the garlic and discard.
• Add the 2 types of kale and stir to coat with the oil. Season with salt and add the chicken stock. Cover and cook for 2 to 3 minutes.
• Uncover and stir to be sure that the kale is cooked evenly. Let the liquid evaporate. Sprinkle with sherry vinegar. Taste to make sure that the kale is seasoned perfectly.
• Serve immediately.

SAUTEED KALE

Steps:

• Cook kale in a 6-quart pot of boiling salted water , uncovered, stirring occasionally, until just tender, about 10 minutes, then drain in a colander.
• Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté onion, stirring occasionally, until softened, 6 to 8 minutes. Add garlic and red pepper flakes and sauté, stirring, until garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Reduce heat to moderate, then add kale and cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through. Remove from heat and stir in vinegar and salt.

YUMMY SAUTEED KALE

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large saute pan that has a lid.
• Dice up onion and saute in olive oil until onion is translucent. Add garlic and saute until garlic becomes pale golden in color.
• Wash the kale thoroughly, and add it a handful at a time to the pan. Stir until it begins to wilt and all of it can fit in your pan.
• Add about a half cup of broth or water, turn the heat down to low-medium and cover the pan.
• Season with a pinch of sea salt and ground pepper. Do not leave the pan unattended for too long--set a timer if need be. The goal is to let the kale simmer in a small amount of liquid for ~30 minutes. This will require frequent stirring and the addition of small amounts of liquid to keep the kale from sticking to the pan. The longer you cook it and the more liquid you add, the more tender and delicious the dish will be--however you will lose nutritional value if you cook it too long. Taste it every now and then--when you are happy with it, take it off the heat and enjoy!
