Love greens - found this recipe at the grocery store - one of those cards you get and tweeked it to my tastes. Lots of goodness in this dish!
Ingredients
- 1 bunch collard greens, stems discarded shopping list
- 1 bunch mustard greens, stems discarded shopping list
- 1 bunch swiss chard, stems discarded shopping list
- ½ cup shallots (about two), sliced shopping list
- ¼ cup pumpkin seeds shopping list
- ¼ cup sunflower seeds shopping list
- ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil shopping list
- Zest of 1 lemon shopping list
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice shopping list
- Kosher or sea salt and cracked black pepper to taste shopping list
- hot sauce to taste shopping list
How to make it
- Cut greens into 1-inch-wide strips. Rinse thoroughly in cold water; shake loose excess water.
- In an 8-quart stock pot, heat olive oil over medium-high flame. When oil is hot, add seeds and toast for 30-45 seconds (they will begin to pop). Quickly add shallots and sauté for an additional minute. Drop greens and lemon zest in all at once; use tongs to toss together with seeds and shallots. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 6-8 minutes. Greens will be wilted but will have retained their bright color. Remove promptly from heat, toss in lemon juice, then season with salt and pepper.
- Serve while hot and pass the hot sauce!
