Swiss Chard With Tomatoes Recipes

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.

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.

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.
