Ingredients

1 pound collard greens

2 tablespoons olive oil OR vegetable oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Before you begin, wash your hands, surfaces, utensils, and produce.
  2. Remove stems from greens.
  3. Put frying pan over medium-high heat and add oil.
  4. Shake excess water from greens and roughly chop them into bite-sized pieces. Add greens to frying pan. If all of the greens won't fit in the frying pan, cook them in batches.
  5. Stir greens over medium-high heat until wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
  6. Reduce heat to medium, add garlic, and cook greens for 5-7 minutes, or until tender.
  7. Add salt and black pepper. Serve immediately.

Tips

  • Try chard, kale or other leafy greens instead of collard greens.
  • Freshen it up! Try eating your collard greens with squeezed lemon or lemon juice.
  • To wash greens, place them into a large bowl filled with water. Submerge the greens to rinse them. Replace the water in the bowl and repeat 2-3 times or until greens are clean. Transfer greens to a colander to dry.
