Ingredients
3 clove Garlic .5 tsp Salt .25 tsp Pepper, black 1 lemon yields Lemon Juice 2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil 7 cup, chopped Kale 2 serving Bacon, John Morrell, Hardwood Smoked Bacon (2 slices/17g)
Use your hands to pull the kale leaves from their stems. Coarsely chop the leaves. Rinse them, but do not dry.
Heat the oil in large, wide, high-sided sauté pan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes, if using, and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute (do not let the garlic brown).
Add the kale a few handfuls at a time, stirring after each addition so that it starts to wilt, until all of the kale is added. Stir in the salt and pepper. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the kale is just tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the lemon juice, and serve.
