This recipe features Swiss chard and fresh spinach, but you could also use mustard greens, kale, or broccoli rabe if that's what you prefer.

Ingredients

Cooking spray

4 spray(s)

Olive oil

1 tsp

Uncooked onion

1 medium, chopped

Garlic

3 clove(s), thinly sliced

Uncooked Swiss chard

1 pound(s), rainbow variety, stems cut into 1/4-inch slices and leaves cut lengthwise in half and crossswise into 1/2-inch ribbons

Reduced sodium chicken broth

¼ cup(s)

Table salt

¾ tsp, divided

Spinach

9 oz, baby variety

Paprika

1½ tsp

Dried thyme

½ tsp

Black pepper

½ tsp, coarsely ground

Uncooked lean boneless pork chop

8 chop(s)

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until golden, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, 30 seconds.
  2. Add Swiss chard, in batches, stirring, just until wilted before adding another batch. When chard is wilted, add broth and ¼ tsp salt and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, until chard is almost tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in spinach, in batches, and cook, covered, until wilted and tender, about 5 minutes longer.
  3. Meanwhile, stir together paprika, thyme, pepper, and remaining ½ tsp of salt in a cup. Sprinkle over pork chops.
  4. Coat a large ridged grill pan with cooking spray and set over medium heat until hot. Add pork chops to pan and cook, turning once, until browned and cooked through, about 6 minutes. Divide pork chops and greens evenly among 4 plates.
  5. Serving size: 2 pork chops and 1 cup greens

Notes

You can use your grill for this or a cast-iron pan if you don't happen to have a grill pan.
