Ingredients

  • 1 pound collard greens
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic chopped
  • 1/2 medium bell pepper diced
  • 2 teaspoons Creole seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 cup vegetable broth
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  • Wash and drain collard greens, remove mid-stems, and chop. Set aside.
  • Turn the Instant Pot on Sauté Mode.
  • Add oil and heat, add onion and cook until the onion is soft about 2 minutes.
  • Stir in the garlic and bell pepper and cook until fragrant, another minute.
  • Add Creole seasoning, smoked paprika, oregano, and thyme.
  • Stir in the chopped collard greens, vegetable broth until the collards are beginning to wilt.
  • Close the lid of the Instant Pot, turn the knob to sealing and cook collard greens on high pressure for 5 minutes.
  • After the collard greens are cook, Quick release the pressure. To do this, turn the knob on Venting. I love to add a damp towel on top of the valve as the steam is releasing. Be careful.
