Recipe courtesy of Harvard University Dining Services
Serves 4
Ingredients:
- 1 pound fresh kale, roughly chopped
- 1 medium-sized onion, sliced thin
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Preparation:
- First, caramelize the onions: Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a sauté pan over medium low heat and add the onions.
- Cook very slowly on medium low heat, stirring occasionally, until the onions are browned; do not burn. When finished, remove from heat and set aside.
- In a separate sauté pan, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the chopped kale and sauté until tender, about 8 minutes.
- Add the onions and, if desired, the lemon juice. Toss together. Remove from heat and serve.
