2 bunch kale
2 small sweet onion -- sliced

Old Bay Seafood seasoning
1 lemon wedge -- (optional)

Pull leaves away from kale stems and discard stems. Tear any large leaves into bit-size pieces. Rinse under cold water and set aside.Line a large skillet with a thin layer of water and bring to a boil.Once the water is boiling, add onion. After a minute, add garlic. Continue to cook for another minute.Reduce heat to medium and add kale.Cover and let kale steam.Once
most of the kale has turned a bright green, about 30 to 45 seconds,remove the lid and give it a good stir, so all kale pieces are bright green.Remove from heat and sprinkle generously with Old Bay seasoning. Mix with tongs or a spoon and fork to incorporate the garlic and onion with the kale. Add more Old Bay seasoning to taste (I am very generous!) and serve with a lemon wedge, if desired.

Chef's Note: Old Bay seasoning comes to us from Maryland, where it's primarily served with locally caught crabs. A lemon wedge is always served as a garnish in this signature dish, as fresh lemon juice adds a nice dimension to the flavors in the Old Bay seasoning - try it!

Author Note: Old Bay seasoning is my favorite topping for kale and here I've jazzed the dish up a little by adding sweet onions and a bit of fresh garlic.
