Garlic Roasted Kale


Roasting kale is amazing—the leaves turn from a dusty dark green to dark emerald with brown-tinged curly edges that crunch. This vegetable side is delicious served hot from the oven; the leaves lose their crisp texture as the dish stands.
Total: 24 minutes
Yield: 4 servings (serving size: about 2/3 cup)

Ingredients

  • 3 1/2  teaspoons  extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/4  teaspoon  kosher salt
  • 1  garlic clove, thinly sliced
  • 10  ounces  kale, stems removed and chopped
  • 1  teaspoon  sherry vinegar

Preparation

1. Arrange oven racks in center and lower third of oven. Preheat oven to 425°. Place a large jelly-roll pan in oven for 5 minutes.
2. Combine first 4 ingredients in a large bowl; toss to coat. Place kale mixture on hot pan, spreading with a silicone spatula to separate leaves. Bake at 425° for 7 minutes. Stir kale. Bake an additional 5 minutes or until edges of leaves are crisp and kale is tender.
3. Place kale in a large bowl. Drizzle with vinegar; toss to combine. Serve immediately.
