Ingredients

  • 4 cups chopped kale
  • 1 ½ red onions sliced in narrow wedges
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1-2 lemons
  • Bunch of basil

Instructions

  • Mix together 3 tablespoons olive oil and the vinegar in a medium bowl.
  • Toss the onions with the oil and vinegar and let marinate for 5 minutes.
  • Heat a sauté pan on medium-high heat until it is very hot.
  • Dump the onions and marinade in all at once and turn with a wooden spoon or tongs to brown.
  • Once they have good color, turn down the heat and let them simmer for a few minutes until they have softened but aren’t limp.
  • Transfer to a bowl and keep warm.
  • Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the pan you cooked the onions in.
  • Throw in the kale and turn quickly to coat with the oil.
  • Let the kale warm and wilt slightly.
  • Turn off heat.
  • Plate the dish by placing a large spoonful of the puree on a plate and then place some kale and onions off-centered, but still on the puree.
  • Drizzle a bit of olive oil over the kale and puree, sprinkle some basil leaves over the top and season with salt and pepper.
  • Serve with a slice of lemon to squeeze over the kale and puree.
