Preparation

Step 1

Step 1 Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-low heat, turning occasionally, until browned and crisp, about 10 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain; pour off all but a teaspoon of fat from the skillet.

Step 2 Add butter and melt. Add shallot (and carrot, if using) and adjust heat; vegetables should sizzle, but not scorch. Cook, stirring, about 2 minutes. Add corn, peppers and pepper flakes and let sizzle, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Crumble bacon and add to skillet with scallions. Add greens two cups at a time, stirring to wilt before adding more. Cook together 1 minute and serve hot.
