Ingredients
- 2 bunches collard greens, stemmed
- 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
- 1/2 red onion, sliced
- 3 slices bacon, cut crosswise into 1/4-inch strips
- 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
Directions
- Working in batches, stack greens; cut crosswise into 2-inch-thick strips. Gather strips; cut crosswise into 2-inch pieces. Transfer to a large bowl of cold water; swish to remove grit. Transfer greens to a colander using a slotted spoon; let drain. Repeat until greens are free of grit.
- Heat oil in a very large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and bacon; cook until onions are translucent, about 4 minutes. Add greens; cook, stirring, until greens begin to wilt and are reduced in volume.
- Raise heat to high; add vinegar. Cook, scraping up brown bits from bottom of skillet, until vinegar has evaporated, about 1 minute.
- Add stock; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, until greens are just tender, 12 to 14 minutes. If making ahead, refrigerate, covered; reheat over low heat.

Nutritious and Delicious!
Martha! Lots of your recipes need fixing! Okay, so we're using 1 cup of chicken broth. But what about 'few hours of stewing' mentioned above? That isn't mentioned again in the recipe.
Um, I might be overlooking this but I don't see stock listed, how much?
This recipe leads to a delicious result!!
I found the original printed recipe, it calls for 1 cup of low-sodium chicken stock.
Have tried other collard green recipes and find this the best one yet.Easy and tastey . Everyone in the family liked it. It is a keeper.
I use chicken stock. I used 1 cup with these quantities and it worked - at least my guests in Houston loved it.
Writers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Have YOU answered this question yet? A lot of us would like to make this recipe.
Does someone who is familiar with cooking collard greens know what kind of stock should be used and how much? The recipe doesn't have this listed in the ingredients.
I must agree. There have been a lot of recipes that have mistakes, missing ingredients or instructions lately. It would be helpful if there were a link to report these inaccuracies so we don't have to wait so long for corrections.
Stock? Am I missing something or is this missing from the list of ingredients?
I've noticed a lot of incomplete recipes lately on the website. Does Martha have a new writer?
