This rainbow swiss chard caught my eye immediately on a post-work stop into Whole Foods last week…
“For a few things” <— we all know how that story goes 
Stunning, right?
Organic. And 3/$5. Less than $2 each. Who says eating healthy has to cost big bucks?! 
I decided that some local grass-fed beef would pair wonderfully with this hearty, leafy green.
So beef it was.
A simple marinade/sauce, just 3 ingredients: fresh garlic, soy sauce & spicy sambal oelek.
P.S. If you don’t have sambal you can just use sriracha, omitting the clove garlic in this recipe.
Stirred together and spooned over the sliced meat to marinate for a short while.
Before a quick throw together in a hot pan…
And in just minutes, dinner will be on the table.
See!! 
Sliced onion into some hot oil for a few minutes, until soft.
Followed by rinsed & drained rainbow swiss chard, just until it starts to wilt.
Now make some room for the spicy marinated beef.
And pour it right into the pan with the other goodies.
We’re all friends here
Just about 2 or 3 minutes until the beef is just barely done (flipping midway).
Then stirred around to combine the flavors and finish cooking the beef just another minute or so (this resulted in a still-pink center, my preference).
If you like your beef more well done, let it go a little longer until it’s as cooked through as you like it.
And before you know it…
Dinner.
Is.
Served.
Feel free to layer this over some fluffy rice, quinoa or even millet too. Or just go for it plain like I did. Either way I’m sure you’ll enjoy!
Do you enjoy leafy greens like swiss chard too?
Asian Beef & Rainbow Swiss Chard 1. Prep steak 20 minutes ahead of time, slicing into 1″ pieces. Mix marinade by combining soy sauce, sambal oelek and garlic. If you have sriracha you can use that in lieu of the sambal + garlic. Marinate beef in fridge for at least 20 minutes. 2. Rinse and chop rainbow chard into large piecies, drain well. Slice onion. 3. Remove beef from fridge and let come up to temperature while veggies cook. Heat up large pan over medium heat, add olive oil and onion, cooking for 5 minutes until onions start to soften (stir occasionally). Add chopped chard for another 5 minutes until it starts to cook down. 4. Push chard/onion mixture to edges of pan so that there is a spot in the middle for the beef. Add beef to pan and let cook, turning midway, for 2-3 minutes or until barely pink in middle. 5. Stir everything together and let cook another minute or two or until beef is as done as you like it. Serve!
