Dinosaur Kale with Toasted Almonds
Ingredients
- 1 or 2 bunches dinosaur kale, about 1/2 pound, stems and ribs discarded, leaves cut into thick strips, about 10 cups
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- salt and pepper
- 1 or 2 tablespoons unskinned almonds, toasted and chopped
Directions
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt lightly. Drop in the kale, cook until tender, about 5 minutes, and drain.
Heat the oil in a large sauté pan and add the kale, garlic, ¼ teaspoon salt, and a pinch of pepper. Sauté over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes, adding a little water if needed to keep the kale from sticking to the pan. Toss in the almonds just before serving and season to taste with salt and pepper.
