Stuffed Swiss Chard Rolls

  1. Preheat oven to 350F.
  2. Prepare an ice-water bath.
  3. Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
  4. Blanch chard until tender and bright green, about 2 minutes.
  5. Using a slotted spoon or tongs, transfer chard to the ice bath; let cool, then transfer to paper towels and pat dry.
  6. Reserve leaves, being careful not to tear them.
  7. Cut off stem, making a V shape about 1 inch up from bottom of leaf.
  8. Chop stems into 1/4-inch pieces.
  9. Meanwhile, place quinoa and 2 1/4 cups broth in a medium saucepan.
  10. Bring to a boil, and stir once.
  11. Reduce heat; simmer (uncovered) until quinoa is tender and has absorbed all liquid, about 15 minutes.
  12. Transfer quinoa to a large bowl; keep in a warm place.
  13. Heat a large saute pan over medium-high; add butter and oil.
  14. When hot, add shallots and carrots; cook, stirring, until shallots are translucent, about 1 minute.
  15. Add mushroom caps, chard stems, and 1/2 teaspoon salt; season with pepper.
  16. Saute until vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes.
  17. Remove 1 1/2 cups mushroom mixture from pan; add to quinoa.
  18. Reserve remaining mushroom mixture.
  19. Coarsely chop 1 tablespoon marjoram (or add 1/2 teaspoon dried); stir into quinoa.
  20. Divide chard leaves into six portions.
  21. Form one portion into a 6-by-10-inch rectangle, overlapping leaves so there are no gaps.
  22. Place 1/2 cup quinoa mixture at a short end, then roll up chard, enclosing sides.
  23. Brush lightly with oil; place in an 8-inch baking dish.
  24. Repeat, making 5 more rolls.
  25. Bake until heated through, 5 to 10 minutes.
  26. Heat remaining mushroom mixture over medium-high.
  27. Add Marsala; cook, stirring, until most of the liquid has been absorbed.
  28. Add remaining 2 3/4 cups broth; cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 6 minutes.
  29. Stir in remaining 1 tablespoon marjoram (or 1/2 teaspoon dried).
  30. To serve, slice each chard roll in half; place in the center of a plate.
  31. Spoon the mushroom mixture around chard.
