Sautéed Kale with Golden Garlic and Dates

Serves 4

30 minutes or fewer

Once you've tried this tasty dish, you'll find yourself making it again and again.
  • 2 Tbs. olive oil
  • ⅓ cup thinly sliced cloves garlic
  • 3 bunches kale, tough ribs removed, chopped (1 ¾ lb.)
  • ⅓ cup slivered pitted dates
  • 2 tsp. sherry vinegar

1. Heat oil and garlic in skillet over medium heat 6 to 8 minutes, or until garlic starts to brown, stirring occasionally. Spread garlic on plate in single layer. Add a few handfuls of kale to pan, and stir until it wilts. Add remaining kale a few handfuls at a time; sauté 5 minutes, or until tender, stirring occasionally.

2. Transfer kale to colander to drain, pressing to remove excess liquid. Return kale to pan, and stir in dates and vinegar. Heat 2 to 3 minutes, or until heated through. Season with salt and pepper, if desired. Serve sprinkled with garlic.

Had this for dinner last night...kid approved! I didn't have sherry vinegar so I used red wine vinegar. Yum...this is fabulous! It will stay in our rotation...it has a Chinese taste to it. Love it! :)
