Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium high heat. Add the onion and cook for 3-4 minutes or until just softened.
- Add the salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes to the pan. Stir to combine.
- Place the kale in the pan, and pour in the chicken broth.
- Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until kale is tender and most of the liquid has evaporated.
- Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- Sprinkle the fresh herbs over the top, then serve.
Notes
- This dish works with both traditional curly kale and dinosaur kale, which is a flat leaf variety.
- Sauteed kale will stay fresh in the fridge for up to 4 days, which makes it great for meal prep.
- You can use any type of fresh herbs in this dish. I typically use chopped parsley because I always have it on hand, but other great options include green onions, basil or dill.
- Add the garlic towards the very end of the cooking time so that it doesn’t burn.
