Sweet and Tangy Sauteed Collard Greens

Directions

Ingredients :

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

½ Vidalia or other sweet onion

sliced

1 ½ pounds collard greens – rinsed

trimmed and chopped

½ cup water

3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

2 tablespoons honey

1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger root

5 tablespoons melted butter

salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Methods :

Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in collard greens, in batches if necessary, until they wilt slightly and all fit in the skillet. Pour in water and cook, stirring occasionally, until bright green and tender, 5 to 7 minutes, regulating heat to prevent burning. Drain.

Meanwhile, whisk vinegar, honey, ginger and butter together in a serving bowl for dressing. Add greens to bowl and toss with dressing. Season to taste with salt and pepper; serve warm.
