How to Make Oven Roasted Kale
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Rinse 1 bunch (about 1 pound) of kale thoroughly and pat dry with paper towels.
- Remove and discard the thick stems from the kale leaves. Roughly chop the leaves.
- Pat the chopped kale dry again with paper towels. This step is crucial for achieving crispy kale.
- In a large bowl, toss the kale with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 2 cloves of minced garlic.
- Spread the kale in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet. If you have a lot of kale, it's okay to slightly overlap the leaves.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes, until the leaves are tender, crisp on the edges, and slightly browned.
- Remove from oven and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of sesame seeds and a pinch of sea salt (start with 1/4 teaspoon and add more to taste).
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
