Couve A Mineira: Brazilian-Style Collard Greens
- 1 bunch collard greens, shredded*
- 2 large cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons beer (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 lime
- sea salt, to taste
- *the easiest way to chop the greens is to stack the leaves, roll them tightly like a cigar, and chop the cylinder into thin shreds.
- Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add oil and saute garlic with a pinch of salt until golden.
- Add greens and toss to coat in oil. Pour in beer, add paprika & salt to taste, and continue to toss greens, while allowing alcohol to cook off. They will cook quickly, and should still be tender when you remove them from pan.
- Divide between plates and squeeze lime juice over before serving.
