Ingredients
- 1 turkey wing (8 ounces)
- 1/2 cup onion
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 pound collard greens
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Preparation
- In a large pot, bring 2 quarts of water to a boil. Add turkey wing. Reduce heat and cook for about 1 hour. Set aside.
- Chop onion, garlic and collard greens.
- In another large pot, heat oil and butter on medium heat. Add onion and sauté for 2 minutes or until tender.
- Add garlic and red pepper flakes, and cook 1 minute.
- Add collard greens and cook 1 minute.
- Add enough turkey stock to cover greens (about 4 cups). Add salt and bring to a simmer.
- Cook until greens are tender, about 40 to 50 minutes.
- Debone the turkey wing and add meat to the cooked greens before serving.
Helpful hints
- Most greens get a bad rap for being high in potassium when actually it is the portion consumed that makes the difference. Many people eat more than 1/2 cup. Stay within the suggested portion to keep potassium down.
- To include turkey meat as an entrée, cook several turkey wings or legs. Remove and discard skin from the cooked turkey and add the meat to the collard greens if desired.
