Ingredients

  • 2 Tablespoons oil peanut, canola, avocado, or other neutral high-heat oil
  • 150 grams about 6-8 cups kale, leaves cut into bite size pieces (see note on stems)
  • 250 grams 8 ounces brown or white mushrooms, trimmed and sliced
  • 150 grams red onion, sliced 1/2 a large onion
  • 1.5 Tb balsamic vinegar
  • 1.5 Tb soy sauce
  • Salt and black pepper to taste as needed

Instructions

  • Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet.
  • Add onion and mushrooms. Spread them out and let them sit for 2 minutes before stirring. Continue to cook and stir until onion is just translucent and mushroom is just tender, about 5 more minutes.
  • Add the kale leaves and stir well. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the kale leaves are bright green and just tender enough to eat. Turn off the heat and stir in the balsamic vinegar and soy sauce. Stir well and allow the liquid to reduce for about 30 seconds.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

For the kale stems/ribs, you can either remove and discard them or slice them really small so they are easier to eat. If you intend to cook the stems/ribs, you should add them with the onions and mushrooms.
