My family loves this side dish, especially my husband who is more than picky when it comes to green veggies. My son always asks for seconds on this side dish.

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (12 ounce) package Italian sausage
¼ cup unsalted butter
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 bunch turnip greens, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Cook sausage in a skillet or frying pan over medium heat, rotating every 3 minutes, until nearly cooked through, about 10 minutes. Drain most of the juice, leaving a layer of juices in the skillet.
  • Stir butter and olive oil into sausage; add turnip greens and garlic. Cook greens mixture over high heat, stirring every 5 minutes, until wilted and sausage is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Season greens mixture with salt and pepper and continue cooking over medium-low heat for 10 minutes more.
