Step 1

Cut stems into ¾ inch pieces. Cut leaves into 1 inch strips.

Step 2

Heat oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add onion and chard stems to pan, season with salt, pepper and red pepper flakes. Sauté 4-6 minutes or until softened and onions are translucent.

Step 3

While onion and chard cook, heat a small cup of water in the microwave to almost boiling. Add raisins and allow to plump and soften slightly for about 5-8 minutes. Drain, reserving water.

Step 4

Add leaves to pan, season with salt and pepper, and sauté 4-6 minutes or until tender. Add a few tablespoons of raisin water to help steam the greens. During the last minute of cooking, stir in raisins, pine nuts and vinegar and taste for seasoning. Enjoy.
