Swiss Chard with Grated Garlic - 4.8g Carbs, 1.8g Fiber, 1.2g Sugar

This is my new go-to green dish. I can literally go from picking chard
from the garden to getting this on the table in under 10 minutes. And
don't let the humble ingredients list fool you … these greens are loaded
with flavor. I recommend zipping and chopping the greens, then giving
them a good rinse in a big bowl of cold water and spinning or straining
them dry. A Microplane zester works best for this dish because it grates
the garlic so finely as to make almost a paste. If you don't have a
Microplane zester, use the finest grater you have and cook a tad longer.
2 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, divided
12 cups cleaned, zipped and chopped Swiss chard (about 3 bunches)
3 cloves garlic, peeled
Sea salt and freshly ground pepper
Heat 2 teaspoons olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat and
swirl to coat the bottom of the pan. Add the chard and toss to coat.
Cook for 3 minutes, until chard is well wilted.
Pour in remaining 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon oil. Grate the garlic
onto the chard, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and toss several times
to distribute the garlic and coat the leaves evenly. Cook for 2-3 minutes
more, until chard is wilted and garlic is fragrant.
