Sweet, spicy, and savory, these Jerk Seasoned Collard Greens are a hearty and flavorful side dish that also makes great leftovers!

Ingredients

• 1 yellow onion ($0.32)
• 1 clove garlic ($0.16)
• 1 Tbsp cooking oil ($0.04)
• 2 tsp jerk seasoning ($0.20)
• 1/2 cup orange juice ($0.52)
• 3 cups chicken broth ($0.36)
• 1 lb. chopped collard greens ($2.50)

Instructions

1. 1

   Slice the onion and mince the garlic. Add the onion, garlic, and cooking oil to a large pot. Sauté the onion and garlic over medium heat until the onions are soft and translucent (about 5 minutes).

2. 2

   Add the jerk seasoning, orange juice, chicken broth, and collard greens to the pot. Stir to combine. Place a lid on the pot, turn the heat up to medium-high, and allow the broth to come up to a boil.

3. 3

   Once boiling, turn the heat down to medium-low and let the collard greens simmer, stirring occasionally, until they are tender (about 30 minutes, or to your liking). Keep the lid in place when not stirring. Serve hot.
