Sautéed Collard Greens and Garlic

kosher salt and black pepper

3 bunches collard greens, stems discarded and leaves cut into 1-inch strips

1/2 cup olive oil

3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced


  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the collard greens in batches and cook until just tender, about 10 minutes. Drain the greens in a colander and rinse under cold water to cool; squeeze to remove any excess water.

  2. Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the greens, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper. Cook, tossing often, until wilted and tender, 3 to 4 minutes.
