Directions

  1. Chop chard stems into 1-inch pieces. Tear leaves in half.

  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, cook and stir until fragrant. Stir in bacon, cook until browned and crisp, about 5 minutes.

  3. Stir Swiss chard stems and leaves into the skillet. Reduce heat and cover skillet. Cook for 5 minutes. Turn chard with tongs to coat with bacon drippings. Cover and cook, turning once, until stems are fork tender, about 10 minutes more.
