For the chickpea dish, wash the chard, slice the stems thinly, and cut the leaves into large pieces.
Saute the onion in olive oil for 5 minutes, add the chard stems, and cook for 3 minutes.
Add the chard leaves in batches and wilt them for 4 minutes.
Add the chickpeas, salt, and a little hot water, then close the lid.
Cook the dish over low heat for 12 minutes and remove it from the heat before the leaves lose their color.
💡 Tip: Add the chard leaves toward the end; leaves that cook too long lose their flavor.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve with garlicky yogurt.
