I loved this. I'm a great fan of greens and hadn't yet found a favorite Swiss Chard recipe, until now. I worried about the raisins, as I sometimes find them distracting, but golden raisins are so subtle compared to the purple ones, and they do plump up and go so well with the chard. I left out the pancetta/bacon since I didn't have it, and it was still really good. My only question was 14 oz of broth, which seemed like way too much; I only added 6 oz max. It also didn't say to cover it after adding the broth, but I did, and cooked til just tender. Know that you need close to 1 bunch per person - 2 bunches for 3 of us made small but adequate servings.

I couldn't find Swiss Chard, so I substituted 2 bags of spinach. Next time I'll just use one cup of broth. It was a hit with my family!!! Nice compliment to the Ham and Fontina Fritatta.

Excellent way to cook a very healty vegetable such as swiss Chard, the golden raisins are adding nice sweetness to the dish.

this was easy and delicous! i omitted the olive oil and used half the bacon grease before i added the onions. the raisins were so good in this dish.

Tried one bunch red chard, 7oz low sodium veggie broth, 1/4c raisins sans pancetta to keep the sweetness, with a splash of ginger. Worked great.

Really enjoy this recipie. Thanks for posting.

I was never a fan of swiss chard until I tried this recipe. Omitted pancetta and salt, added black olives and low sodium chicken broth. Husband asked for this one again!

Loved this recipe, and I usually don't like golden raisins. I had this as a meal by itself.

I thought the bacon and amount of oil really dectracted from the taste of the chard. it did not taste like a vegetable side dish to me. However, the flavor was good in and of itself, just not what I was expecting.

I was looking for new recipes for cooking greens--we like wilted spinach (RR's recipes for that are great as well, but wanted to branch out. This was a good change--and the raisins really do go well, much to my husband's surprise!
