Ingredients

2 bunches Swiss chard, or kale (or 1 bunch each)
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 large yellow onion, peeled and thinly sliced
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 ounces ricotta salata cheese

Directions

Wash the greens, but do not dry. Trim the large stems and coarsely chop. Set aside.

Warm 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a large, heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add the onions and saute for 4 minutes. Add the garlic and saute for 4 minutes longer. Add the greens, chicken broth, soy sauce, and pepper. Cook, stirring often, until the greens have wilted and become tender, about 7 to 10 minutes.

Transfer the cooked greens to a serving plate and crumble the ricotta salata cheese over the top.

Perfect

I am growing swiss chard in a container (very easy). Did not have the cheese, but it was perfect. Will make often.... Looking forward to trying it with the ricotta salata.Read more

A very quick and flavorful way to cook a vegetable I have been wanting to try. The soy, onions, garlic and cheese... were perfect. Swiss chard will now be in my vegetable repetoire!Read more

This wasn't horrible, but it wasn't very good either. We paired it with the cod and lima beans from the same episode, which... was disappointing as well. All together - fairly hohumRead more

The wilted greens were very delightful but kind of greasy and it didn't feel very light which vegetables usely feel healthy... this dish didn't.Read more

Not my cup of tea
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

I may have been expecting too much because I don't like chard to begin with, but it was still to bitter for me. I may not... have cooked it long enough. I have more chard to cook so I am going to give it a second chance.Read more
