Ingredients

  • 2 pounds rainbow chard (3 to 4 medium bunches)
  • 2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 pound radicchio (about 2 large heads), cored, cut into 1-inch wedges, leaves separated (about 8 cups)
  • 2 tablespoons (or more) red wine vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons currants (optional)
  • 1/4 cup pine nuts, toasted

Steps

  1. Cut ribs from chard; chop crosswise into 1-inch pieces (about 4 cups). Slice leaves crosswise into 1-inch strips (about 16 cups).
  2. Melt butter with oil in large pot over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; cook until onion is tender, stirring occasionally, about 4 minutes. Add chard ribs; cover and cook until tender, about 6 minutes. Working in batches, add chard leaves and radicchio, stirring until wilted. Cook uncovered until vegetables are tender, stirring often, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in 2 tablespoons vinegar and currants, if desired. Season with salt and pepper and more vinegar, if desired.
  3. Using slotted spoon, transfer chard mixture to bowl. Sprinkle pine nuts over.
