Dandelion Stir Fry

3 boneless chicken breast or pork tenderloins cut to bite size pieces

2 cups or more of dandelion greens

1 or 2 cloves of garlic

1 small red onion

Crushed red pepper

Sea salt

Olive Oil

Add washed dandelion leaves to a pot of water and cook 10 minutes , drain water. You may want to boil a second time if they're bitter. Saute red onion in olive oil , remove when tender and browned as you like. Add minced garlic cloves to oil , saute to they turn clear , add chicken or pork to sauteed garlic and stir-fry until done. When chicken is done , add dandelion greens , caramelized onions , sea salt and crushed red pepper to your liking. Continue stir-frying until greens and onions are heated through. I have served this stir-fry over rice and angel hair pasta , it was delicious both ways.
