Categories     side-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic, grated, plus 1 unpeeled clove, smashed
1 small baguette, torn into medium pieces
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Juice of 2 lemons
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
4 white anchovies, minced
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 pounds lacinato kale, ends trimmed
1 pound red endive, halved lengthwise
1 pound escarole, halved lengthwise
1 cup sliced chives (about 1 1/2-inch pieces)
Freshly grated Parmesan, for serving

Steps:

  • Set up your grill for even medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, distribute the coals evenly. If using a gas grill, heat both sides evenly.
  • In a small saucepan set on the grill, melt the butter with the clove of smashed garlic. Remove the garlic.
  • Place the torn baguette in a mixing bowl and pour the melted garlic butter over the top. Toss to coat the bread and season with salt and pepper. Put the croutons in a cast-iron pan and place on the grill. Cover the grill and bake until golden brown and crisp, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • In the meantime, in a mason jar, add the lemon juice, olive oil, grated garlic, anchovies, Dijon and red pepper flakes. Season with salt and pepper and vigorously shake to combine.
  • Remove the croutons from the grill and set aside. Brush the kale leaves and the cut side of the endive and escarole with some of the lemon vinaigrette. Place on the grill, cut-side down, and char for about 2 minutes.
  • Remove from the grill, slice into bite-sized pieces and put in a large serving bowl. Add the croutons and chives and dress with the remainder of the vinaigrette. Add Parmesan and toss to combine. Serve.

Partially fill a clean sink with warm water, and stir in 3 tablespoons of salt and 2 cups of chicken broth; allow greens to soak in the mixture for 10 minutes. Scoop up the greens and allow to drain in a colander; discard used chicken broth. Do not rinse the greens.
  • Pour the remaining 2 cups of chicken broth into a large pot, and mix in the greens. Stir in vegetable oil, garlic, bacon bits, and sugar, and season with salt and black pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until the greens are tender, stirring occasionally, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
