Ingredients
2 cups vegetable or chicken stock
2 cups water
1 pound baby potatoes of various colors
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
1 pound dinosaur kale or Swiss chard, chopped roughly
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Salt and black pepper
Grated zest of a lemon
Lemon juice to taste
Directions
Bring the stock and water to a boil and add the potatoes. Turn the heat down to simmer gently until the potatoes are tender, about 20-30 minutes.
Drain and coat the potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Salt well and set aside.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat for 1-2 minutes. Add the kale and turn to coat with the oil as it wilts.
Add the garlic and toss to combine, then add the red pepper flakes and some salt and black pepper. Stir-fry this for 2 minutes, then turn off the heat and cover the pan. Wait 2-4 minutes before uncovering. To serve, mix the lemon zest with the kale. Lay down a "nest" of kale on the plate and arrange the baby potatoes in the center. Squeeze some lemon juice over everything right as you serve.
