Southern Style Collard Greens Recipe

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.
