Until the last several years, I can't ever remember eating chard. If prepared properly, it is very good, high in vitamins and minerals and makes a delicious side. This is an adaption of a Rachael Ray recipe. Ingredients:
2 slices bacon, chopped |
1 small red onion, thinly sliced |
1 lb swiss chard, stemmed and coarsely chopped |
2 -3 tablespoons cider vinegar |
1 teaspoon sugar |
salt and pepper |
feta cheese (optional) |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, saute the bacon until crisp; remove bacon when crisp and drain all but 1 to 2 teaspoons bacon fat.
2. Add the onion to the skillet and cook for a few minutes in the hot fat, toss in the chard, cover pan with a tight fitting lid and steam until the chard wilts, 3 to 4 minutes.
3. Add the vinegar, sugar, and salt and pepper to taste, serve immediately sprinkled lightly with crumbled feta cheese if desired.
