Ingredients

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, 2 turns of the pan
2 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces
4 cloves garlic, chopped
24 small crimini mushrooms, wiped clean, halved
1 bunch kale, trimmed, stems removed and chopped
1/4 cup Marsala or other sherry
Salt and pepper

Directions

Heat a medium skillet with extra-virgin olive oil and butter over medium to medium-high heat. When fat is hot, add garlic and mushrooms and place a lid which is too small for the skillet down into the pan, pressing and smothering the mushrooms. Cook 7 to 8 minutes, stirring once, then wilt the kale into the pan, turning it with tongs to combine with mushrooms. Smother the greens for 1 to 2 minutes, then deglaze the pan with Marsala and season the mixture with salt and pepper, to taste.

This is a WINNER!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this for myself and thought I would be able to have it for a couple of meals but my daughter stopped by and that was... the end of the Kale. She loved it as much as I did. This will become a staple at our table.Read more

This was the first time I have ever made kale and it won't be the last. This dish was fantastic. I didn't have a lid that... was the right size for the actual smothering, but it worked anyway and it was good. I had friends over who never had kale before either and they all enjoyed it too. Read more

My boyfriend never had kale before and now he requests it all the time. Substituted regular white mushrooms for the crimini... b/c they can be a little pricey if they're not on sale. Either way, it was fantastic!! This will definitely go into our regular rotation! Can't wait to try with a few substitutions that others have suggested like Marsala or balsamic.Read more

Hail the Kale
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Never cooked with Kale before, never had it, but have meant to make this recipe since last August, and finally got around to... making it last night. The four of us loved it. I wouldn't change a thing. Read more

Kicking Kale
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I enjoyed this recipe so much, words can't begin to tell. I love green leaf vegetables, but Kale was never a favorite, well... after trying this recipe, I will be adding it to my favorites. I didn't have wine available, so I used some balsamic vinegar, let me tell you it was awesome, I have to share this with my friends. Thank you for sharing.Read more

FANTASTIC with the Marsala wine!!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I was very curious about this recipe when I saw her make it on TV, since the only way I had ever gotten my husband to eat... kale in the past was by putting it in a soup with Italian sausage, so when I got a bunch of kale from my CSA, it was the perfect opportunity to try it. We're not so big on the wilted greens idea, but I thought that with the mushrooms and wine it might not be too bad...boy it was even better than that - it was FANTASTIC!!! So good that I had to go and buy more mushrooms to make this again tonight! I'm going to try it with chard and see what happens. The long cooking of the mushrooms really makes a difference (I'm usually a fan of a very quick, hot cooking for mushrooms) and lends them a nice deep flavor which is enhanced very nicely by the Marsala wine. Definitely one of those recipes to try it if you're at all curious! Makes eating your greens even more enjoyable!Read more
