Ingredients
- 3 bunches collard greens washed trimmed, and cut
- 10 lices Bacon chopped (12 oz. package)
- 1 small onion finely chopped, about 1 cup
- 1 tablespoon garlic
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
- ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Wash and pat dry collard leaves. Cut out the stem and cut the leaf in half. Layer leaves and cut into 1 inch strips, then cut strips into 2 inch lengths.
- In a dutch oven, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon to a paper towel lined plate.
- Drain out bacon grease from the pot, leaving about 1 tablespoon.
- Add onion to the pot and cook until soft. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant; about 1 minute.
- Add chicken broth and scrap brown bits from the bottom.
- To the pot, add apple cider vinegar, sugar, seasoned salt, red pepper, and black pepper.
- Submerge collard greens in broth in the pot.
- Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to keep greens simmering. Cover and simmer for 35-40 minutes or until the greens are tender.
- Drain and serve immediately.
Notes
- Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 4-5 days.
- Bacon is easier to cut if it is partially frozen.
