Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Prepare kale

Remove the stems from the kale and chop the leaves into bite-sized pieces. Rinse well and pat dry.

2
Toast pine nuts

In a large, dry skillet, toast the pine nuts over medium heat, stirring frequently, until lightly golden and fragrant, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

3
Prepare aromatics

Peel and mince the shallot and garlic cloves.

4
Heat oil

In the same skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

5
Sauté aromatics

Add the minced shallot and garlic to the hot oil and sauté until softened and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.

6
Add kale

Add the chopped kale to the skillet and stir to coat with the oil and aromatics. Sauté until the kale begins to wilt, about 4-5 minutes.

7
Add cranberries

Stir in the dried cranberries and continue to cook until the kale is tender, about 2-3 more minutes.

8
Season

Sprinkle the kale with salt and black pepper, and stir to combine.

9
Add pine nuts

Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the toasted pine nuts.
