Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 6, 1/2 cup per serving

Ingredients

2 teaspoons olive oil
1 cup chopped onion
1 tablespoon bottled minced garlic or 6 medium garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup plain dry bread crumbs
8 ounces packaged chopped fresh kale (about 5 cups)
1/2 cup fat-free, low-sodium chicken broth
Red hot-pepper sauce to taste (optional)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat, swirling to coat the bottom. Cook the onion for 3 minutes, or until soft, stirring frequently.

    Step 2

    Stir in the garlic. Cook for 30 seconds, stirring frequently.

    Step 3

    Stir in the bread crumbs. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until lightly brown, stirring frequently. Transfer to a small bowl.

    Step 4

    In the same skillet, stir together the kale and broth. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, covered, for 6 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed and the kale is tender and wilted, stirring occasionally.

    Step 5

    Stir in the bread crumb mixture. Sprinkle with the hot-pepper sauce.
