See Also: Article on Swiss Chard

INGREDIENTS

• 2 large shallots, chopped
• Olive oil as needed
• 1 large batch Swiss chard, stems removed
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2 garlic cloves
• Half cup chicken broth
 

DIRECTIONS

Sauté the shallots in the olive oil. 

Or, if you are including the chard stems, chop them and sauté them first. 

When they just start to soften add the shallots. 

After the shallots soften add the chard leaves, salt and pepper. 

As soon as the leaves reduce add the garlic and sauté one minute more. 

Add the chicken broth, bring to a boil, reduce to low heat, cover, and cook until the chard is completely soft. 

About 10 minutes.
