Sautéed Kale Red Onions With Garlic And Lemon Food

SAUTEED KALE WITH GARLIC

Steps:

• Cook 5 sliced garlic cloves in 1/4 cup olive oil in a pot over medium-low heat until sizzling, 1 minute. Add 1 pound chopped kale and stir until wilted, 3 to 5 minutes. Increase the heat to medium. Add 2 tablespoons cider vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and a pinch of red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring, until tender, 5 minutes.

SAUTEED KALE

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook until soft, but not colored. Raise heat to high, add the stock and kale and toss to combine. Cover and cook for 5 minutes. Remove cover and continue to cook, stirring until all the liquid has evaporated. Season with salt and pepper to taste and add vinegar.

LEMON GARLIC SAUTEED KALE

Steps:

• Rinse the kale, and then pull the leaves from the stems. Discard the stems or save to add to homemade stock another day. Coarsely chop kale leaves into randomly shaped pieces, about 2 inches large.
• Heat the olive oil in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil shimmers, add the garlic and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring often, until the garlic is soft, but before it browns.
• Add the chopped kale leaves, stock, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Cook, tossing the kale around the pan occasionally, until the kale turns bright green, is soft and is wilted, about 7 to 8 minutes. If before the kale is tender, the liquid evaporates, add a little bit more to the pan.
• Taste and adjust with additional salt, and then finish by stirring in the juice from half a lemon.

SAUTéED KALE

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large sauté pan set over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Add garlic, and cook until soft.
• Add kale to the pan, turn the heat to high and add the stock. Use a spoon to toss the greens in the oil and stock, then cover and cook for approximately 5 to 7 minutes, until it is soft and wilted, but still quite green. Remove cover and continue to cook, stirring occasionally until all the liquid has evaporated, another 1 to 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and peppers, add vinegar and toss to combine.

SAUTEED KALE WITH GARLIC AND LEMON

Steps:

• On a cutting board, trim kale by folding a leaf in half lengthwise (at the stem); use a sharp paring knife to slice away from stem; discard stem. Tear leaves into small pieces; rinse in a large colander.
• Cook kale in a large pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Drain well.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Add kale; season generously with coarse salt and ground pepper. Cook, stirring often, until wilted and tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Sprinkle with lemon juice; toss to combine. Serve immediately.

SAUTéED KALE & RED ONIONS WITH GARLIC AND LEMON

Steps:

• Tear the leaves off the kale into bite-size pieces. Slice the stems into 1 inch long pieces.
• Blanch the stems for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove, place in a strainer, quickly rinse under cold water to halt cooking.
• Blanch the kale leaves for 1 to 2 minutes, and rinse in a strainer under cold water. Drain.
• Heat the oil in a medium skillet and sauté the garlic for 1 minute. Saute the onions for 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add the kale leaves, stems and shoyu soy sauce. Sauté for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
• Sprinkle the lemon juice over and toss to mix. Serve immediately after adding the lemon juice or the leaves may loose their bright green color.

SAUTEED KALE WITH LEMON

Steps:

• In a large pot, bring 1 inch of water to a boil. Add kale and salt. Cover and cook, stirring once, for 5 minutes or until crisp-tender. Drain.
• Return kale to pot. Drizzle with olive oil. Reheat. Add lemon juice, red pepper flakes and parmesan cheese.
• Toss and serve.

LEMON-GARLIC KALE SALAD

Steps:

• In a toaster oven or skillet, toast almonds until golden brown and fragrant. Set aside to cool.
• In a bowl, combine lemon juice and 1 heaping teaspoon salt. Slowly whisk in olive oil. Add garlic cloves and set aside to steep.
• Working in batches, cut the kale into thin ribbons: gather a large handful of leaves, bunch together tightly, and use the other hand to slice into 1/4-inch-thick pieces. This need not be done very precisely or neatly; the idea is to end up with a kind of slaw. (Recipe can be made up to this point 1 day ahead. Keep kale and dressing refrigerated separately.)
• Place chopped kale in a very large bowl. Sprinkle surface with almonds and then with cheese, if using. Remove and discard garlic cloves from dressing. Pour half the dressing over the salad and toss. Taste for dressing and salt and add more as needed, tossing to coat thoroughly. Serve within 1 hour.

SPICY GARLIC KALE WITH SAUTEED RED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Wash kale. Pull greens away from the stalks, discarding stalks. Shred by hand into small pieces.
• Place kale in steamer basket, and steam until tender (approximately 10 minutes). Remove immediately from heat.
• Heat olive oil in heavy pan over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add onions and leeks. Saute until onions are translucent and leeks begin to brown. Add garlic and red pepper flakes, saute for 1-2 more minutes. Add bell pepper slices, and saute until tender (approximately 4-5 minutes). Remove from heat.
• Add kale to pan, and toss ingredients together thoroughly. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot or room temperature.

KALE WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND GARLIC

• Heat oil in large pan.
• Add chopped onions and garlic.

• (Thanks reviewers for reminding me of removing the stems!).

SAUTEED KALE

Steps:

• Cook kale in a 6-quart pot of boiling salted water , uncovered, stirring occasionally, until just tender, about 10 minutes, then drain in a colander.
• Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté onion, stirring occasionally, until softened, 6 to 8 minutes. Add garlic and red pepper flakes and sauté, stirring, until garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Reduce heat to moderate, then add kale and cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through. Remove from heat and stir in vinegar and salt.
