Back to TopThis recipe is amazing though I would halve the salt in the oil. I also made this in a cast iron pan because I don't currently have a grill. It was a massive hit with guests. I could eat a whole head of kale like this!

This was a creative change from the usual steamed or sauteed greens that we usually make. Because I had them in the garden, I used a blend of kale, pak choy, and mustard greens. I followed the recipe exactly and they were very popular. I did add a drizzle of reduced balsamic vinegar that the end, which I think added a nice bit of sweetness, but I think they would have been fine as is. I will definitely make this again.
