Total time: 15 mins
Ingredients
  • 2 lbs fresh kale
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 cup chopped onion (about 1 medium)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1-2 tbsp chipotle in adobo, chopped, + some sauce
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp fresh lime juice (1 lime)
  • optional: another whole lime for garnish
Instructions
  1. Cut the kale leaves off the ribs and slice them into about ½ inch strips.
  2. In a very large skillet or pot, pour in the olive oil and cook the onion over medium heat for a couple minutes to soften.
  3. Add the garlic and cook another minute.
  4. Dump the kale in and add 2-3 tbsp water. Cover and cook 3-4 minutes, stirring once or twice; kale will cook down to about ⅓ the size.
  5. Remove cover and stir in chipotles and salt, adjusting to taste.
  6. Stir in lime juice and serve; garnish with lime wedges, if desired.
  7. Enjoy!
