Directions:
In a large sauté pan, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil and garlic over medium-high heat just until the garlic is golden. Add the chard and coat with the garlic and oil, mixing lightly. Add the red pepper flakes, lemon zest and San-J Gluten Free Tamari and toss to coat. Continue stirring until the chard has softened and darkened in color, about 3 minutes. Transfer the chard to a colander, and using tongs, gently squeeze to remove any excess liquid. Return the chard to the pan and sprinkle with the lemon juice and remaining olive oil. Serve immediately. Serves 4.
