Southern Style Collard Greens Recipe (Page 2 ) | January 21, 2024

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Collard Greens:
   • Wash the collard greens thoroughly. Remove tough stems and chop the leaves into bite-sized pieces.
2. Cook the Bacon:
   • In a large, heavy pot or Dutch oven, cook the diced bacon over medium heat until it becomes crispy and renders its fat.
3. Sauté Onion and Garlic:
   • Add finely chopped onions to the pot with the bacon. Sauté until the onions become translucent.
   • Add minced garlic and continue to sauté for an additional minute until fragrant.
4. Add Collard Greens:
   • Place the chopped collard greens into the pot, stirring well to combine with the bacon, onions, and garlic.
5. Pour in Chicken Broth:
   • Pour in the chicken broth to the pot. Ensure that the collard greens are mostly submerged.
6. Season and Simmer:
   • Season with red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Add apple cider vinegar for a hint of tanginess.
   • Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours, stirring occasionally, until the collard greens are tender.
7. Serve:
   • Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve the Southern Style Collard Greens hot, with a dash of hot sauce if desired.
