This easy sautéed kale with garlic and olive oil gets a slight kick from red chili flakes. It's a fantastic side dish and becomes a meal when tossed with al dente pasta Slideshow: Recipes for Greens
Your kale may always be tough and chewy because you have to knead kale like you would knead dough once you peel it from the stalk before you cook it.
Why is my Kale always tough and chewy?
I think you mean "cover and steam," not "cover and saute."
really enjoyed this recipe! it's super simple and i don't know why i haven't been adding chili flakes to my kale before! i added my kale straight from the bag (prepackaged) so there wasn't much water content to help steam it. instead, i added about 2 tbps of chicken broth, which doubled for extra flavor.
This is yummy, but I also sauté a nice fat sliced shallot and some sun-dried tomato with the garlic. And, being currently Keto, I add a nice splash of heavy cream while it’s cooking. Delish.
Thanks so much for sharing this recipe. I love kale and typically only eat raw or as kale chips.
Sauteed Kale.....LOVE IT!!!❤
