Collard Greens with Pork Shank

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pork Shank

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the pork shank and brown it on all sides, about 10 minutes.

  2. 2

    Sauté Aromatics

    Add chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Simmer

    Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for about 1 hour.

  4. 4

    Add Collard Greens

    Stir in the collard greens, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cover and cook for an additional 30-40 minutes, until the greens are tender.

  5. 5

    Finish with Vinegar

    Stir in the apple cider vinegar and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot.
