Ingredients:  
2 large bunches, rinsed, swiss chard (center stem removed),

1 cup organic chicken broth (low sodium)

Directions:

Cut stems and center ribs from chard, discarding any tough portions, then cut stems and ribs crosswise into 2-inch pieces. Stack chard leaves and roll up lengthwise into cylinders. Cut cylinders crosswise to make 1-inch-wide strips.

Heat oil and butter in a large heavy pot over medium heat until foam subsides, then cook onions and garlic with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, covered, stirring occasionally, until onions begin to soften, about 8 minutes. Add chard leaves in batches, stirring until wilted before adding next batch. Add 1 cup broth and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until tender. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a serving bowl.


Cooks' notes:


· Chard can be washed, dried, and cut 2 days ahead and chilled in sealed bags lined with dampened paper towels.
· Chard can be cooked 4 hours ahead and reheated over low heat on stove or in a microwave oven.
