Directions
- In a large saute pan over medium heat, warm oil and red pepper flakes until oil is glistening.
- Add kale, sea salt and pepper. You may want to start with 1/16 tsp sea salt and work up to 1/8 tsp, if you feel you need more salt.
- Turn with tongs until all of the kale turns bright green and shiny. If any dull pieces remain, keep turning. It will take approximately 3 minutes.
- Serve under a dippy egg and enjoy!
Note
There is a big stalk running down the middle of kale that isn’t very tasty. It’s edible, but it’s too tough to enjoy. Just strip the kale from the stalk!
