Method

Main Dish Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Collard Greens

    Wash the collard greens thoroughly under cold water. Remove the stems and chop the leaves into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Cook the Turkey Leg

    In a large pot, combine the smoked turkey leg and chicken broth. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to a simmer.

  3. 3

    Add Vegetables

    Chop the onion and garlic. Add them to the pot and cook for about 5 minutes until softened.

  4. 4

    Simmer the Greens

    Add the collard greens, apple cider vinegar, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Stir well, cover, and let simmer for about 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the greens are tender.

Cornbread Preparation

  1. 5

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. 6

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Mix well.

  3. 7

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter.

  4. 8

    Combine and Bake

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined. Pour the batter into a greased 8x8 inch baking dish. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
