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

  • 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).
  • 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.
  • 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.
