Method

Kale Preparation

  1. 1

    Sauté the Kale

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped kale leaves, salt, and black pepper. Sauté until the kale is wilted and tender, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

Breadcrumb Topping

    Prepare the Breadcrumb Topping

    In a separate skillet, toast the pine nuts over medium heat until golden brown, about 3-5 minutes. Add breadcrumbs and chopped rosemary, stirring well to combine. Continue to cook until the breadcrumbs are crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese.

Dressing

    Make the Lemon Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, lemon zest, honey, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Currants

    Prepare the Currants

    In a small bowl, soak the currants in warm water for about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
