Collard Greens With Bacon
Source: marthastewart.com (Entered by Betty Fasig)This is a classic recipe for collard greens, where they’re braised with bacon and onion and brightened with a splash of cider vinegar. For maximum flavor and tenderness, cook the greens a few hours in advance, store in the refrigerator, and reheat them just before serving.
Serves: 4-6
Ingredients
2 bunches
collard greens, stemmed
2 tsp
vegetable oil
1/2
red onion, sliced
3 slices
bacon, cut crosswise into 1/4 -inch strips
2 tbs
cider vinegar
1 cup
chicken broth
Step by Step Instructions
- Working in batches, stack greens; cut crosswise into 2-inch-thick strips. Gather strips; cut crosswise into 2-inch pieces. Transfer to a large bowl of cold water; swish to remove grit. Transfer greens to a colander using a slotted spoon; let drain. Repeat until greens are free of grit.
- 2. Heat oil in a very large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and bacon; cook until onions are translucent, about 4 minutes. Add greens; cook, stirring, until greens begin to wilt and are reduced in volume.
- 3. Raise heat to high; add vinegar. Cook, scraping up brown bits from bottom of skillet, until vinegar has evaporated, about 1 minute
- Add stock; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, until greens are just tender, 12 to 14 minutes. If making ahead, refrigerate, covered; reheat over low heat.
