In this hearty side dish from Lidia Bastianich, who won our Outstanding Chef Award in 2002, sturdy baking potatoes and Swiss chard are boiled until tender, then sautéed with a quarter of a head of garlic and some good olive oil. It's delicious as an accessory to short ribs or other rich braises.

This must-have cookbook will feature a delicious, signature recipe from every winner of the Foundation’s Outstanding Chef Award. When we went to press, space required that we omit some surplus essays and recipes. During the weeks leading up to the book’s release, we’ll be sharing this bonus content with our readers. Think of it as an appetizer.
