Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in collard greens, in batches if necessary, until they wilt slightly and all fit in the skillet. Pour in water and cook, stirring occasionally, until greens are bright and tender, 5 to 7 minutes; check often and lower heat as necessary to prevent burning. Drain.
Step 2
While the greens are cooking, whisk vinegar, honey, ginger, and melted butter together in a serving bowl. Add drained greens to the bowl and toss with dressing. Season to taste with salt and pepper; serve warm.
