Ingredients

  • Swiss chard - 300 grams
  • Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
  • Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
  • Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon
  • Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
  • Parmesan cheese - 20 grams, grated (optional)

Steps

  1. 1. Rinse the Swiss chard thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt and grit. Drain and set aside.
  2. 2. Remove the tough stems from the Swiss chard leaves and chop the leaves into bite-sized pieces.
  3. 3. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
  4. 4. Add the chopped Swiss chard to the skillet and stir well, allowing it to wilt, which should take about 3-4 minutes.
  5. 5. Season the sautéed chard with salt, black pepper, and lemon juice, stirring to combine.
  6. 6. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the chard is tender but still vibrant in color.
  7. 7. If desired, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese on top before serving.
