  • 10 oz Frozen Swiss Chard; Note 1
  • 1 1/4 c Long-Grain Rice; Note 2

 Directions

Note 1: Original recipe called for frozen collard, kale, turnip or mustard
greens

Note 2: Original recipe used uncooked converted long-grain white rice...we
used this and I would not use it again. I have entered it as long-grain
rice...be sure to adjust any extra water and cooking times for it.

In 2 qt heavy saucepan over med-high heat, cook bacon until crisp.

Stir in onions. Cook 5 - 6 minutes, stirring often, until onions are golden
and tender. Add broth and frozen greens. Bring to a boil; cook 3 - 4 min,
stirring occasionally, until greens are thawed.

Add rice and return liquid to a boil. Reduce heat to med-low. Cover and
simmer 20 - 25 min, or until rice is firm but tender and liquid is
absorbed.

To Microwave: Put bacon and onions in a 2 qt microwave-safe bowl.
Microwave, uncovered, on High 3 - 4 min, stirring once, until bacon is
crisp and onion tender. Pour in chicken broth and add greens. Cover with
lid or vented plastic wrap. Microwave on High 4 - 5 min more, or until
greens are easily broken up. Stir in rice. Cover and microwave on High 20 -
22 min more, stirring once, until rice is tender and all liquid is
absorbed.

This was good but mushy. I would not use the converted rice again.
