Cavolo Nero (Black Kale) Recipe
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, medium dice
- 4 medium garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
- 4 pounds black kale (about 6 to 7 bunches), tough stems removed and leaves cut into bite-size pieces
- Heat olive oil in large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium heat until shimmering.
- Add onion, garlic, salt, and red pepper flakes (if using) and cook until vegetables have softened, about 4 to 5 minutes.
- Increase heat to medium high, add orange juice, and bring to a simmer.
- Add a few handfuls of kale and, as it wilts, continue to add a handful at a time, stirring constantly, until all the kale is in the pan, about 10 minutes.
- Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until all the kale is wilted, about 2 minutes more.
- Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Serve immediately.
