Chatelaine Triple Tested

Lacinato kale is also called black, dino or Tuscan kale. Its leaves are smaller and more delicate than regular curly kale's. Either type works for this recipe.

Ingredients

  • 2 bunches lacinato kale, about 700 g

  • 1/3 cup butter

  • 1 garlic clove, thinly sliced

  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  • BOIL a large pot of water. Cut tough stems away from kale leaves with a paring knife and discard. Add kale to boiling water. Boil until kale is tender, 3 to 5 min. Drain, then rinse well with cold running water. Pat dry.

  • MELT butter in an extra-large frying pan over medium. Add garlic and cook for 3 min. Add reserved kale. Cook until warmed through, 1 to 2 min.
