Looking for a fast AIP side dish that's healthy as can be? Try sautéed bitter greens like this and you'll get hooked.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil tallow, avocado oil, or lard work well, too
  • 1 cup shiitake mushrooms stemmed and thinly sliced
  • 1 bunch Lacinato kale, roughly chopped or mustard greens, curly kale, collard greens, or chard
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • 1 knob fresh ginger peeled, grated (about 1 teaspoon)
  • 2 stalks green garlic roughly chopped or minced
  • 1 lemon juice added to taste

Instructions

  • The first step is to heat a sauté skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add your oil and shiitake mushrooms. Do not stir. Allow to cook for 2 minutes.
  • Stir the mushrooms then add the kale and stir to coat the leaves with the oil. Sprinkle with salt and continue cooking for 2 minutes. Add the fresh ginger. Stir and cook for another minute.
  • Just before serving, you can add the green garlic and stir it in to distribute the flavor. Portion onto plates and add just a touch of lemon juice (to taste) and watch that green color become even brighter. Enjoy!
