Pairing chick-peas and Swiss chard is nothing new—Armenians have been doing it for generations. But with great tomatoes and a squeeze of lemon, this quick vegetable stew is as fresh as summer. If you can’t find Swiss chard, spinach is an authentic substitute.
Ingredients:
1 small onion, thinly sliced
1 garlic clove, thinly sliced
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small tomato, cut into 1/4-inch dice
1 cup rinsed canned chick-peas
1/2 pound swiss chard, stems discarded and leaves coarsely chopped
1/2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Directions:
1. Cook onion and garlic in oil in a large nonstick skillet over moderately low heat, stirring, until softened. Add tomato and chick-peas and cook, stirring, 5 minutes. Add Swiss chard and cook, covered, until wilted, about 2 minutes. Add lemon juice and season with salt and pepper.
