Instructions

  1. Separate the chard stems from the leaves. Trim the ends of the stems and discard then thinly slice the rest of them. Shred the leaves into relatively thin slices, cutting longer ones as needed, keeping them separate from the stems. Finely dice the onion and the garlic. 
  2. Warm 1tbsp of the olive oil in a medium skillet/frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onion, cook for a minute or two to start it softening then add the chard stems and garlic. Cook for a couple more minutes until all are slightly softened and the garlic is fragrant.
  3. Add the chard leaves and wilt them down, turning the mixture over so the warm stems and onion are on top to help the leaves wilt down. Reduce the heat if needed so the leaves don't burn as you do so.
  4. Add the raisins and pine nuts and stir them through as you cook all another minute or two. Add the lemon juice, a little more olive oil and mix through then serve.
