Collard Greens

Ingredients

1 bunch collard greens, large ½ onion ¼ pound bacon 1 teaspoon minced garlic 1 cup chicken broth ⅓ teaspoon sea salt, or to taste ground black pepper, to taste

1. Fold individual collard leaves in half to easily slice and remove stem. Repeat with all leaves. Cut greens into thin strips, and set aside.

2. Peel and mince onion. Cut bacon into 1 inch pieces.

3. In a large skillet, cook bacon until crispy. Remove bacon and set aside, but keep fat in pan.

4. Sauté garlic, onion, and sea salt until translucent. Add collards a small amount at a time until they have all wilted.
