How To Cook SWISS CHARD That Will Melt In Your Mouth

Sort through the Swiss chard to remove any dirt and check the stems.

Chop the Swiss chard into nice big pieces and wash it in a big bowl of water, swishing it around to remove dirt.

Change the water and repeat the washing process three times.

Use a salad spinner to dry the Swiss chard, spinning until most of the water is removed.

Prepare sliced garlic and sliced onion, aiming for a size similar to the chard stems.

Heat a pan over medium heat and add olive oil to cover the bottom.

Add the sliced onion and garlic to the pan, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

Cook the onion and garlic until they start to soften and steam.

Add the Swiss chard to the pan, mixing it with the onion and garlic, and season with a little more salt.

Pour in about half a cup of chicken broth, mixing it in with the chard.

Cook until the chard wilts down and most of the liquid evaporates, adjusting salt and pepper as needed.

Turn off the heat and plate the cooked chard, noting the extra liquid that may remain.

Optionally, drizzle with calabrian chili oil for added heat.
