Braised Kale


INGREDIENTS

  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil
  • 1 small onion, sliced in half moons
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 large bunch of curly kale, stems removed
  • ¼ cup water
  • 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar

INSTRUCTIONS 

  1. Heat oil in a large skillet with a lid over medium-high heat and add onions.
  2. Season with salt and pepper and saute for three to five minutes or until the onions begin to soften.
  3. Add kale and toss to incorporate with the onions.
  4. Add water, cover with the lid, and cook for five to seven minutes, stirring periodically to braise and wilt the kale.
  5. Remove the lid and allow to cook for a minute or so more, if needed, to evaporate most of the water.
  6. Season with vinegar, toss to coat and serve
