Smothered Mushrooms and Kale
Serve with 30 Minute Garlic-Parsley Chicken Under a Brick and Spanish Style Pressed Ham and Cheese Sandwiches.
Ingredients
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), 2 turns of the pan
2 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces
4 cloves garlic, chopped
24 small crimini mushrooms, wiped clean, halved
1 bunch kale, trimmed, stems removed and chopped
1/4 cup Marsala or other sherry
Salt and pepper
Preparation
Heat a medium skillet with EVOO and butter over medium to medium-high heat. When fat is hot, add garlic and mushrooms and place a lid which is too small for the skillet down into the pan, pressing and smothering the mushrooms. Cook 7-8 minutes, stirring once, then wilt the kale into the pan, turning it with tongs to combine with mushrooms. Smother the greens for 1-2 minutes, then deglaze the pan with Marsala and season the mixture with salt and pepper, to taste.
