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
Heat oil

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

4
Sauté garlic

Peel and mince the garlic. Add it to the hot oil and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

5
Add kale

Add the chopped kale to the skillet and stir to coat with the oil and garlic. Sauté until the kale begins to wilt, about 3-4 minutes.

6
Add lemon

Cut the lemon in half and squeeze the juice from one half over the kale. Stir to combine and cook until the kale is tender, about 2-3 more minutes.

7
Season

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

8
Add pine nuts

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

9
Serve

Transfer the lemony kale to a serving dish and serve hot.
