Sautéed Chicory

Ingredients for Sautéed Chicory

• 1.4kg chicory (about 2 heads), outer ribs discarded and remainder cut into 2-inch pieces

• 60ml extra-virgin olive oil

• 4 large garlic cloves, finely chopped

• 1/2 teaspoons hot red-pepper flakes

How to make Sautéed Chicory

Wash chicory. Cook in an 8-quart pot of boiling salted water (3 tablespoons salt for 5.7L water), uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain well.

Dry pot, then heat oil over medium heat until it shimmers. Cook garlic with red-pepper flakes, stirring, until golden, about 1 minute.

Add chicory, stirring to coat. Increase heat to medium-high and cook, stirring occasionally, until most of liquid has evaporated, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in 1/2 teaspoons salt.
