Recipe:
garlic - 2 cloves
salt & pepper - to taste
olive oil - 1 tablespon
red pepper - 1 tablespoon (less if you don't want it spicy)
onion - 1 medium onion. I prefer white or yellow.
chicken stock - 3 cups
collard greens - about a pound
bacon - 3 slices
Cut bacon into bite size pieces. Over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add bacon. Cook until bacon is to your liking (I prefer less crispy). Add one minced onion. Cook onion down, stir occasionally (don't let it stick or burn). Add 2 cloves of garlic & cook for about 5 more minutes. Add the collard greens & cook down until they wilt. Then add in the spices, cook for a few more minutes. Add the 3 cups of chicken stock (you can also switch to vegetable stock) & turn to low. Let this simmer for 45 minutes. Remove lid & cook for another minute or two to let some of the liquid cook off. You can serve over rice or with a side of chicken. Delish!
