Chard Tacos

This dish is spicy - if you've got a mild pallat like me - but delicious. The portion size is small, so you'll definitely want to make a side with this. Go traditional with some rice and beans, or maybe a Heart of Palm and Avocado Salad to help cool down the heat.
  • 1 1/2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 large Onion, large chop
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 cup Chicken Broth
  • 1 bunch Swiss Chard (Stems removed and leaves cut crosswise)
  • pinch Salt
  • Taco Shells

Heat Olive Oil in skillet over medium heat. Stir in onion. Cook, stirring until onion has softened and turned golden brown. Add garlic and red pepper flakes. Stir approximately 1 minute, or until fragrant.

Stir in broth, chard and salt. Cover and reduce heat to low, simmering until chard is nearly tender. Remove lid and increase heat o medium. Stir until liquid evaporates. Remove from heat.

To serve: Fill taco shells with chard mixture.
