Ingredients:
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 1/4 | Pine nuts |
| 3/4 | Kale |
| 2 | Olive oil |
| 2 | Water |
| 4 | Garlic cloves |
| 1/3 | Raisins |
Instructions:
-
Toast Pine Nuts: Preheat your oven to 325°F. Spread the pine nuts evenly on a cookie sheet and place them in the oven for about 5 minutes. Keep an eye on them as they can burn easily. Once toasted, set them aside.
-
Cook Kale: In a skillet with a tight-fitting lid, bring water to a boil. Add the kale and cook for approximately 5 minutes or until the kale is just tender. Drain the kale and set it aside.
-
Prepare Skillet: Rinse out the skillet and dry it. Then, add olive oil to the skillet and heat it over medium heat.
-
Saute Garlic and Raisins: Add the garlic cloves to the heated olive oil and sauté for about 30 seconds. Then, add the raisins to the skillet and stir them for another 30 seconds. The raisins should become glossy and slightly puffed.
-
Combine Kale and Raisins: Add the cooked kale to the skillet with the garlic and raisins. Stir everything together, ensuring the kale is evenly coated with the flavors from the garlic and raisins. Season the mixture to taste.
-
Finish and Serve: Continue to sauté the kale mixture until heated through. Once ready, garnish the dish with the toasted pine nuts. Serve immediately and enjoy!
