Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Swiss Chard

    Rinse the Swiss chard thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or grit. Trim the ends and cut the leaves into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Boil the Chard

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the Swiss chard and cook for about 2-3 minutes until just wilted. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Squeeze out excess water and set aside.

  3. 3

    Grill the Chard

    Preheat the grill to medium heat. Toss the Swiss chard with olive oil, lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper in a bowl.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Place the seasoned Swiss chard on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes, turning occasionally until nicely charred. Remove from the grill and serve warm, drizzled with additional lemon juice if desired.
