How to Make It
Step
In a large heavy skillet over medium high heat, add the oil, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Cook the garlic, stirring, until it is golden, about 3 minutes. Stir in the collards, turning and stirring with tongs until they are tender and bright green, 4 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve.
