Steps:
- Toast the allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg and a pinch of salt in a medium saucepan over a medium heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the chicken stock and bring to a simmer. Place the couscous in a medium bowl. Pour the seasoned stock over the couscous and add the raisins. Gently stir to combine, then cover with plastic wrap and allow to sit until the stock is absorbed and the couscous is fluffy, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large saute pan over a medium heat and cook the onions until translucent, stirring often, about 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 2 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add the mushrooms and cook until softened and caramelized, 5 minutes. Add the Swiss chard and continue to cook until it is fully wilted, 3 to 5 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
- Toss the Swiss chard mixture into the couscous along with about half of the parsley, then stir. Top with the remaining parsley and serve warm.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, season the chicken legs with salt, pepper, 5 cloves of minced garlic, the thyme, rosemary, oregano, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Toss to fully coat the chicken, then cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- Prepare the Swiss chard. Cut out the thick stems. Stack the leaves, roll up, then thinly slice into ribbons. Slice the roll in half. Transfer to a bowl and set aside. Slice the chard stems on the bias. Transfer to a medium glass or nonreactive metal bowl and set aside.
- In a large skillet, combine the sugar, 1 tablespoon of salt, the cinnamon stick, cloves, mustard seeds, allspice, bay leaves, peppercorns, coriander seeds, and red pepper flakes. Add the white wine vinegar and water, and stir well. Heat the pan over high heat, bring to a boil, and cook for 5 minutes.
- Place a strainer over the bowl of sliced chard stems. Pour the boiling pickling liquid over the stems and discard the solids. Let the stems pickle until the liquid has cooled and the stems have softened, about 30 minutes.
- Wipe out the skillet, then heat over medium-high heat with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil until the oil is shimmering. Sear the chicken, skin-side down, until the skin is dark golden brown, 5-7 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side for another 5-7 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
- Add the onion, remaining 5 cloves of minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring, until the onion is softened and golden brown, about 10 minutes.
- Add the lemon juice, Swiss chard leaves, and couscous. Cook until the greens wilt, about 2 minutes.
- Add the chicken stock and bring to a boil. Sprinkle in the capers and return the chicken to the pan, submerging in the cooking liquid. Cover, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for about 15 minutes, until the couscous has puffed up and become tender. Remove the pan from the heat.
- Serve with the pickled chard stems, feta cheese, and parsley.
- Enjoy!

SWISS CHARD GNUDI WITH TOMATOES
Love gnocchi? Then get to know gnudi, a delicate Italian dumpling similar to gnocchi but based on ricotta cheese, not potato. This recipe adds Swiss chard to the dough and serves the dumplings over a light and fresh cherry tomato sauce.

Steps:
- Dust a rimmed baking sheet with flour. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil; add the Swiss chard and cook until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the chard with tongs and transfer it to a kitchen towel. (Reserve the pot of water.) Squeeze the chard dry in the towel, then transfer it to a food processor and process until finely chopped.
- Combine the chard, ricotta, Parmesan, whole egg and egg yolks, grated lemon zest and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a large bowl; mix well. Mix in the flour until just combined. Scoop tablespoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, then gently shake the pan to coat the gnudi in flour. Freeze at least 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine the olive oil and garlic in a large skillet over medium heat and cook until the garlic is golden, about 3 minutes. Remove the garlic with a slotted spoon and reserve. Increase the heat to high; add the tomatoes and cook, stirring, until they begin to pop. Reduce the heat to medium; stir in the tomato paste and red pepper flakes. Add 1 1/2 cups water, the lemon zest strips and reserved garlic. Cook, crushing the tomatoes, until thickened, 8 to 10 minutes; stir in the lemon juice. Remove the strips of lemon zest. Divide the sauce among bowls.
- Return the pot of water to a low boil. Working in two batches, gently add the gnudi and cook until they float, then cook 1 minute longer for a total of about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and add to the bowls. Drizzle with olive oil and top with Parmesan.

HEIRLOOM TOMATO CONCASSé WITH WILTED SWISS CHARD
Sweet, juicy heirloom tomatoes can be made into a concassé that works as well with vegetables as it does with pasta or grains. Sometimes, I can't bear to cook sweet heirloom tomatoes. I love this concassé with pasta or grains, but this time, I decided to use it as a sauce for Swiss chard. I steamed the chard to wilt it, heated it in a little bit of olive oil, then piled it on my plate and spooned the tomato sauce on top. It's a great combo, and now I think I'll use it as the vegetable and sauce element of a big bowl. A little feta sprinkled over the top would not be lost on this.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine the tomatoes with their juices, garlic, salt, vinegar, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and half the basil. Cover and let sit for 30 minutes or longer. Stir, taste, adjust salt and add pepper.
- Meanwhile, wilt chard by blanching in boiling salted water for about a minute or by steaming above 1 inch of boiling water for about 2 to 3 minutes, flipping the bunch top to bottom using tongs halfway through. Transfer to a bowl of cold water, drain and squeeze out excess water, taking up the chard by the handful. Chop coarsely.
- Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chard and heat through, stirring, until coated with oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove to a platter or to plates, spoon on the tomato sauce, sprinkle t remaining basil over the top and serve.

COUSCOUS WITH SWISS CHARD AND TOMATOES
Adapted from a recipe by Washington Post columnist Stephanie Witt Sedgwick. This is one I'd like to try. Her trick for peeling tomatoes is to cut an X in the bottom, put in hot water for about 3 minutes, then transfer to cold. To seed tomatoes, cut in half and gently squeeze out the seeds. To julienne basil leaves, her tip is to roll them then cut in strips.
