Often kale is too tough to enjoy. Boiling it in advance of the saute gives the kale a chance to cook properly and keeps the dish moist. From Epicurious.
Ingredients
1 1/2 lb kale
1 medium onion
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
1/2 tsp salt
Preparation
Pull the kale leaves off the stems and break into bite sized pieces. Cook kale in large pot of boiling salted water until wilted, about 5 minutes. Transfer to colander; drain.
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in the paprika and crushed red pepper; sprinkle with salt. Add kale and sauté until heated through, about 4 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper and more paprika, if desired. Transfer to serving bowl; drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon oil and serve.
