This recipe uses chard leaves, but don’t discard the stems. Chop and add to an omelet, or sauté them in a little olive oil and use as a flavor booster in a grilled cheese sandwich. To turn this side into a vegetarian main dish, top with chickpeas and crumbled feta.
Ingredients
- Cooking spray
- 1 lb rainbow chard
- ½ cup sliced shallots
- ¼ cup golden raisins
- 2 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
- ⅛ tsp kosher salt
- ⅛ tsp black pepper
How to Make It
- Spray 2 rimmed baking sheets with cooking spray. Trim stems from rainbow chard and reserve for another use. Divide chard leaves and shallots evenly between prepared pans; lightly coat vegetables with cooking spray. Broil on high, 1 pan at a time, until partially charred, 4 to 5 minutes.
- Chop chard into large pieces. Place chard mixture on a platter. Top with raisins, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
