Ingredients
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO), 4 turns of the pan
- 2 cloves garlic, crushed
- 2 teaspoons anchovy paste, (eyeball it)
- 6 anchovy fillets, chopped
- Couple pinches red pepper flakes
- 2 heads escarole, trimmed, rinsed, and dried
- 1 lemon, juiced
Serves 4
Preparation
Heat the EVOO in a deep skillet over medium-low heat with garlic and anchovy. Cook together 3-4 minutes to infuse garlic into oil. Remove the garlic cloves and stir oil to mix in the melted anchovies and add the red pepper flakes. Raise heat to medium-high. When oil ripples or begins to waft smoke, add greens and stir fry them 2-3 minutes. Squeeze lemon juice over the greens, toss, and serve.
