Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon Coconut oil
- 2 large Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 6 cups Mixed greens (such as kale, spinach, and Swiss chard)
- 1 tablespoon Coconut aminos
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add the coconut oil, allowing it to melt and coat the pan evenly.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the pan, stirring frequently for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Increase the heat to high and add the mixed greens to the pan. Stir-fry for 3-5 minutes, until the greens are wilted but still vibrant in color.
Add the coconut aminos, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Continue to stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes, ensuring the greens are well-coated with the seasoning.
Remove the pan from heat and transfer the greens to a serving dish. Optionally, sprinkle sesame seeds on top for extra flavor and texture.
Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy as a side dish or as a base for a protein-rich meal.
