Seared Rainbow Chard With Leeks Recipes

Steps:

• Make sure your greens are very dry before preparing recipe. Also, wash and chop them when you come in from market, then they are ready for you to cook up even quicker.
• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and toss 2 minutes, then add chard in bunches and keep it moving as it wilts up a bit - you are just searing it up. The greens should remain crisp and crunchy. Wilting them all and searing them up should take no more than 3 to 4 minutes. Season the greens with nutmeg and salt and pepper, to taste. Douse the pan with a little vinegar and remove from heat. Toss to cook off vinegar and serve the greens hot.

Steps:

• Cut stems from chard (if leaves are large, cut out coarse portions of rib), then cut stems crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
• Stack chard leaves and roll into cylinders. Cut cylinders crosswise to make 1-inch-thick strips of leaves.
• Heat butter and oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until foam subsides, then sauté chard stems and leeks with sea salt and pepper to taste, stirring occasionally, until slightly soft, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add chard leaves and continue to sauté, stirring frequently, until wilted. (If greens begin to brown before they wilt, sprinkle with a few drops of water.).

Steps:

• Slice the kale stems into thin pieces and the leaves into larger strips.
• Heat a large, deep pan to medium-high. Add the bacon a cook 3-4 minutes.
• Then add the shallots and cook until soft-3 more minutes.
• Next add the garlic, and kale STEMS.
• Cook another 4-5 minutes before adding the leaves. Toss until wilted over the heat. Add the soy sauce, vinegar, then salt and pepper to taste. Keep warm.
• Heat an iron skillet to high.
• Dry the scallops thoroughly, then salt and pepper.
• Add the oil to the pan and swirl around.
• When it starts to smoke, quickly add the scallops. Cook on high for about 1-2 minutes.
• Flip the scallops and add the butter. Spoon the butter over the scallops as they cook another 1-2 minutes. Serve over warm greens.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat a small skillet, over medium heat, and melt butter with 2 tablespoons olive oil until bubbling.
• Add leek and saute until it begins to soften, about 5 minutes; add thyme, season with salt and pepper, and cook about 1 minute more.
• Meanwhile, whisk together egg whites and 2 tablespoons pecorino cheese; add to skillet and gently fold into leeks, to scramble, for 1 minute.
• Transfer to oven and bake until the center is set (check by gently shaking skillet), about 7 minutes; transfer to a place and sprinkle with remaining pecorino cheese.
• Toss the arugula and mizuna with the remaining olive oil and a healthy squeeze of lemon juice; season with salt and pepper, then pile on the frittata and serve.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, saute the bacon until crisp; remove bacon when crisp and drain all but 1 to 2 teaspoons bacon fat.
• Add the onion to the skillet and cook for a few minutes in the hot fat, toss in the chard, cover pan with a tight fitting lid and steam until the chard wilts, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Add the vinegar, sugar, and salt and pepper to taste, serve immediately sprinkled lightly with crumbled feta cheese if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F In an ovenproof casserole dish large enough to hold all 4 steaks, combine leeks, water, olive oil, and lemon zest. Cover with aluminum foil and bake 20 minutes, stirring once half way through. Remove from oven, push leeks aside, and add steaks to the dish.
• Spoon leeks evenly over the fish, season with salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Return to oven and bake, uncovered, until salmon is opaque, about 10 to12 minutes. To serve, divide the leeks onto four plates and top with the salmon steak.
