Sautéed Kale with Chorizo Recipe: Ingredients:

● 1 bunch of kale, washed and chopped
● 1/2 lb (about 225g) chorizo sausage, sliced ●● 1 onion, finely chopped
● 2 cloves garlic, minced
● 1 tablespoon olive oil
● Salt and pepper to taste
● Red pepper flakes (optional, for some heat)

● Lemon wedges for serving

Instructions:

Prepare the Kale:

● Wash the kale thoroughly and remove the tough stems. Chop the leaves into bite-sized pieces.

Cook Chorizo:

● In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced chorizo and cook until it starts to brown and releases its flavorful oils.

Sauté Onion and Garlic:

● Add the chopped onion to the skillet and cook until it becomes translucent. Add minced garlic and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Add Kale:

● Add the chopped kale to the skillet in batches if necessary, allowing it to wilt down. Stir frequently to coat the kale in the flavorful chorizo and onion mixture. Cook until the kale is tender but still vibrant green.

Season:

● Season the mixture with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if you want some heat. Adjust the seasoning according to your taste.

Serve:

● Remove the skillet from heat and serve the sautéed kale and chorizo hot. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top for a burst of brightness.

Optional Additions:

● You can customize this dish by adding other ingredients like, Mushroomscherry tomatoes, bell peppers, or cannellini beans for extra flavor and texture.
