Ingredients
  • 2 bunches collard greens
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 large shallot, minced (about 1/3 cups)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • ground pepper, to taste

Directions
  1. Cut the tough end stems off the collards.
  2. Rinse the leaves and gather them together into 2 piles.
  3. Take each pile and roll it tightly. Cut them into thin strips crosswise. You should have about 8 cups.
  4. Heat the oil and butter in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Sauté the shallot with the garlic, stirring often, until they are lightly browned, about 3 minutes.
  5. Add the greens and salt and pepper.
  6. Cook, stirring often, for about 5 minutes or until the greens are tender but bright green.
  7. If necessary, cover with a lid and cook an additional couple of minutes to tenderize the greens

My *5*. What is up with the one. I can not believe this. If they did not like it why not pass it by. This is a great dish.


Yes, this was a GREAT dish! (But yes, I do like greens!)
I used silver beet and it worked a treat. Will cook it like this every time now. Thanks for sharing!
