Portabella and Swiss Chard Sauté

Servings Serves

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup chopped shallots
2 cloves garlic pressed
4 cups sliced portabella mushrooms
1 pound swiss chard trimmed of stems and coarsely chopped
4 teaspoons grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet with a tight-fitting lid over medium heat; add shallots, garlic and mushrooms; sauté until tender, about 5 minutes.
Add Swiss chard; reduce heat, cover and cook for 3 minutes then turn the chard over so that the uncooked leaves are on the bottom and the wilted leaves are on the top. Cover and cook until completely wilted, about 3 minutes.
Arrange on dinner plates and top with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese and black pepper.

Notes

LC SERVING SUGGESTION: Serve over spaghetti squash “noodles” (halve squash lengthwise and place on a lightly oiled baking sheet, cut sides down. Bake in a preheated 375-degree oven till tender. Remove from oven and set aside to cool slightly. Scoop out seeds then, using a fork, scrape squash out of its shell in long, thin (spaghetti-like) strands). Add a salad of mixed baby greens, sliced red onion and avocado, tossed with red wine vinaigrette.

SERVING SUGGESTION: Instead of spaghetti squash, serve over whole wheat pasta.
