When making this healthy side dish, use the stems along with the rainbow chard leaves, as they add even more fiber and texture. Since the stems are firmer, start by sautéing them first, then add the more tender leaves. A few minutes in the pan will give the chard a crispy-soft texture. Add dark sesame oil, garlic, and shallots to enhance the flavor of the sautéed greens, and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds before serving. A perfect complement to grilled steak.

Add the chard stems and 1 sliced shallot; cook until softened, about 4 minutes. Add the chard leaves and 3/4 teaspoon coarse salt; cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
