I use to think that greens took all day to cook but really they don't.. my parents just use to cook them very slow. I keep mine on medium heat and let them sizzle the whole time then I let them cook on med-low for about an hour..total cook time is about 2 1/2 hrs.
Ingredients
1 bag of collard greens/ 2 bundles ( I prefer the bags because they are already chopped you just have to clean them)
1 can swanson chicken both
1 chopped onion
2 smoked turkey drums
salt
pepper
Lawry's seasoning salt
3 cloves fresh garlic
onion powder
garlic powder
apple cider vinegar
1) Fill large cooking pot with 4 cups of water and 1 can of chicken broth
2) Add chopped onions and smoked turkey and bring to a simmer. Make sure to let the turkey drums cook in the juice for at least 20 mins to give water a flavor.
3) Slowly add handfuls of cleaned collard greens letting them soften and stirring as you add the rest
3) Add chopped garic, salt, pepper, seasoning salt, onion powder, and garlic powder to your seasoned preference.
4) Add 3 cap fills of apple cider vinegar and let greens cook at a medium simmer for about an hour and a half
5) Let greens cook until tender make sure to stir and taste greens as they cook, make sure they do not get too mushy.
6) Turn fire down low for last 30 min. serves 4-6 people
