Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Rinse the Swiss chard leaves thoroughly under cold water and pat dry. Remove the tough stems and chop the leaves into bite-sized pieces.

  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sauté until fragrant and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. Add the chopped Swiss chard leaves to the skillet, stirring frequently to wilt them down. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until tender but still vibrant green.

  4. Add the drained and rinsed white beans to the skillet. Stir well to combine and simmer for another 5-7 minutes to meld flavors.

  5. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add red pepper flakes if desired.

  6. Remove from heat and stir gently to combine flavors.

  7. Serve hot as a main course or side dish.
