Baked Swiss Chard Recipes

Steps:

• Put a pan of salted water on to boil and cook the chard stalks for 2 mins until tender. Remove the stalks with a slotted spoon. Add the leaves and cook for 30 secs-1 min. Drain and reserve 200ml of the cooking water. In a saucepan, bring the cream to a simmer, then add the garlic and cook for 2 mins. Whisk in the water, egg yolks and 140g Parmesan, and let them all melt together and bubble for 3 mins.
• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Add the chard to the saucepan, season, mix well and tip into a greased baking dish. Top with the breadcrumbs, thyme and remaining Parmesan. Cover with foil and bake for 15 mins. Remove the foil and cook for 15 mins more until golden and bubbling.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet with olive oil.
• Toss the chard stems and onions in a bowl with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and spread onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the chard stems have softened and the onion is starting to brown on the corners, about 15 minutes. Toss the chard leaves with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle the leaves over the stem mixture, then scatter the feta cheese over top.
• Return to the oven, and bake until the stems are tender, the leaves are beginning to crisp, and the feta is melted and golden, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Butter a 3-quart baking dish.
• Remove the stems from the chard leaves and chop the stems. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat and saute the stems, shallot, 1 teaspoon salt and a couple turns of black pepper until the shallot is golden, about 8 minutes. Stir in the chard leaves and cook, turning with tongs, until the leaves are wilted, about 4 minutes.
• Transfer the chard to the prepared baking dish and make 6 shallow wells in the leaves. Crack an egg into each well and sprinkle the eggs with salt and black pepper. Bake, rotating the dish as needed for even cooking, until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Stir together the yogurt and lime juice in a small bowl; season with salt and black pepper. Top the eggs with dollops of the yogurt and sprinkle with the red pepper flakes. Serve with bread on the side.

Steps:

• Slice the stems into 1-inch pieces and reserve. Stack the chard leaves into a pile. Roll together into a bundle and slice into 1/2-inch ribbons.
• Heat the oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the bacon and saute until browned, rendering the fat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until translucent. Add the red pepper flakes and the chard stems, cook for 3 to 4 minutes and then season with salt and pepper.
• Begin to add the chard ribbons in batches. Once the chard wilts down, add the next batch. Stir occasionally until completely tender, about 5 minutes. Add the balsamic vinegar and serve.

Steps:

• In a large pot, bring water to a boil over medium-high. Gradually add chard and cook until it is just wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a colander to drain, pressing out as much liquid as possible.
• In pot, melt butter. Whisking constantly, add flour and cook 1 minute. Whisking constantly, slowly add milk. Cook, whisking along bottom of pot, until mixture comes to a boil and thickens, 2 to 3 minutes. Add chard and stir until coated. Stir in nutmeg and season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Swiss Chard should be chopped into pieces about 2" square.
• Heat oil in a wok or skillet.
• Saute garlic for about 1 minute.
• Have high heat and saute the swiss chard for about2-3 minutes. (Water clinging to the leaves is enough liquid to cook the chard).
• Toss (do not over cook) until just wilted and getting soft.
• Season with pepper and serve.

Steps:

• Rip leaves from stems and tear. Parboil or steam in salted water until fairly soft. Drain.
• Spray a non-stick baking dish with olive oil.
• Place chard in the pan and mist lightly with olive oil, then sprinkle with cheese. (If doubling the recipe, make two layers, misting each layer with oil and sprinkling with cheese.).
• Bake about 20 minutes, or until chard is softened and cheese is slightly browned on the edges. Season with fresh ground black pepper if desired and serve hot.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F.
• Cook bacon and chard in large ovenproof nonstick skillet on medium heat until bacon is crisp and chard is wilted, stirring occasionally.
• Whisk eggs and dry mustard in medium bowl until blended; stir in tomatoes and 1/2 cup cheese. Add to ingredients in skillet; stir.
• Bake 10 min. or until puffed and golden brown. Sprinkle with remaining cheese; bake 5 min. or until melted.
