Sautéed Swiss Chard
This recipe is a Martha Stewart original that I have made a few adaptations to. Even though it tastes decadent, it is actually very healthy and low in calories. Ingredients
- 2 bunches (about 1 1/2 lbs.) Swiss chard, stalks cut crosswise into 1-inch pieces, leaves torn into 2-inch pieces. Keep stalk and leaves separate.
- 3 Tbs. chopped walnuts
- 2 Tbs. olive oil
- 1/3 C. golden raisins
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 Tbs. balsamic vinegar
- Coarse salt and ground pepper (to taste)
Directions
- Wash chard, leaving some water clinging; set aside. In a large saucepan with a lid, toast the walnuts over medium-high heat, shaking pan to brown evenly, 2 to 4 minutes. Remove from pan; set aside.
- In same saucepan, heat oil over medium-hight. Add stalks, and cook until beginning to soften, about 4 minutes. Add raisins, garlic and leaves. Cover and reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until tender 6 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Pull lid back slightly, and tilt pan to pour of water. Stir in vinegar and walnuts; season with salt and pepper. Serve
