Preparation

Step 1

In a large heavy skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté,
stirring, until it starts to brown. Remove with a slotted spoon. Add the sliced
turnip to the pan and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring, until it is just cooked and
begins to brown. Turn the heat to medium-high and return the garlic to the skillet.
Stir in the chard and zest; sauté for 1 to 2 minutes. Turn the heat off, cover,
and steam for 5 minutes. Season with lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste.
Serve immediately.
