Ingredients

  • 2 lbs fresh greens (such as Swiss chard, dandelion, or mustard greens)
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 6 tablespoons olive oil
  • salt, to taste
  • fresh ground black pepper, to taste

Method

  • Cut away any tough stems from the greens and discard.
  • Wash the greens thoroughly and cut any very large leaves in half.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.
  • Add the greens and cook, uncovered, for 7 to 10 minutes, or until the greens are just tender.
  • Drain leaves in a colander and cool, pressing down with the back of a spoon to extract all the water.
  • Place greens in a baking dish, using a fork to loosen and separate the leaves.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
  • Pour over the greens.
  • Serve warm or room temperature.
