Preparation

  1. Bring 2 quarts of water to a boil in a deep pot. Drop the escarole into the water all at once. Stir until it is submerged and allow the water to come back to a boil. Cook 1 to 2 minutes and remove the pot to the sink. Run cold water into the pot to stop the cooking and pour the escarole into a colander to drain. Press out excess moisture and reserve.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and saute the garlic in it until softened but not browned, about 1 minute. Add the drained escarole, raise the heat and saute, stirring constantly, until just heated through. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
