Garlicky Swiss Chard and Chickpeas

Garlicky swiss chard with chickpeas

Ready in 30 minutes (less if chard is prepped ahead); makes 6 servings

Ingredients

Preparation

1. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add half of the chard and cook, 1 to 2 minutes. When the first half has wilted, add the remaining chard. When all of the chard is wilted, add the chicken broth. Cover the skillet and cook the chard until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain the chard through a fine sieve (strainer) and set it aside.
2. Wipe out the skillet and heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and garlic and cook, stirring, until they are softened, about 2 minutes. Add the chard and chickpeas and cook until heated through, 3 to 4 minutes. Drizzle the lemon juice over the mixture and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Sprinkle cheese on top just before serving, if desired.

Rainbow chard stems ready for roasting

Roasted Swiss (or Other) Chard

And then there’s the simplest (but so delicious) way of all: simply roast your chard with olive oil and salt, adding any other flavorings or ingredients you like, such as garlic, cheese, onions, etc. The great thing about roasted chard is that it’s scrumptious at all temperatures—hot, cold, or room temp.

Ready in 45 minutes (less if chard is prepped ahead); makes 4 servings

Ingredients

Preparation

1. Preheat an oven to 350°F. Grease a baking sheet with olive oil.
2. Toss the chard stems and onions (optional) in a bowl with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and spread onto the prepared baking sheet.
3. Bake in the preheated oven until the chard stems have softened and the onion is starting to brown on the corners, about 15 minutes. Toss the chard leaves with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle the leaves over the stem mixture, then scatter feta cheese (optional) over top.
4. Return to the oven, and bake until the stems are tender, the leaves are beginning to crisp, and the feta is melted and golden, about 20 minutes.
