Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Sautéed Beet Greens with Garlic and Lemon.
Step 1
Begin by washing the beet greens thoroughly and draining them well. Chop the stems and leaves separately to ensure even cooking.
Step 2
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over low heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes, or until fragrant.
Step 3
Next, add the chopped beet stems to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes or until they are softened.
Step 4
Once the stems are tender, add the beet greens to the skillet. Allow them to wilt for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 5
Season the mixture with salt and ground black pepper to taste. Finally, drizzle the sautéed greens with fresh lemon juice before serving.
