Parmesan Garlic Sautéed Swiss Chard
Servings: 4
Calories: 75kcal
Ingredients
- 1 yellow onion thinly sliced
- 1 large bundle Swiss chard about 12-15 ribs
- 1 cloves garlic minced
- 1 and ½ tablespoon butter
- ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt plus additional to taste
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ cup parmesan
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions, salt and pepper to the skillet and sauté until starting to soften, about 5 minutes.
- Add the garlic to the skillet and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Add the chopped Swiss chard stems to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5-8 minutes.
- Once the stems are softened, add the chopped Swiss chard leaves to the skillet. Cook the Swiss chard leaves until wilted, stirring occasionally, about 2 minutes.
- Once the Swiss chard is cooked to your desired doneness, stir in the remaining ½ tablespoon of butter until melted. Sprinkle with shredded Parmesan and keep over the heat for about 30 seconds to let it soften and get slightly melty.
- Serve.
Notes
Leftovers
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up 4 days. I don't recommend freezing as the chard will release extra moisture when thawing which will affect the texture.
Sauté leftovers in a pan over medium low heat (with a little extra butter) for 3-5 minutes until heated through or warm in the microwave.
