  • Author: Heirloomed Collection

Description

Bacon makes everything better. These bacon collard greens are the perfect addition to your plate.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 strips thick-sliced applewood bacon – sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1 small yellow onion, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/4 cup apple-cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 pounds fresh collard greens – stems removed & sliced into 3-inch-wide strips
  • 1 cup chicken broth

Instructions

  1. Using a large skillet heat bacon over medium heat. Chop onion and garlic and mix in as bacon cooks. Cook for a few minutes and as the onion begins to softened mix in the salt and pepper. Next add in the vinegar and allow mixture to cook until liquid is down to about half.
  2. Add the collard greens and chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Reduce the temp to medium-low. Stir the mixture occasionally, until the collard greens have wilted and lost their brightness.
  3. Serve warm and with juices from the pan.
