2tablespoons olive oil
1teaspoon crushed red pepper
1clove garliccrushed and chopped
1 package portobello mushroomsstemmed and cut into 1/2-inch wide by 2-inch long pieces, 8 ounce
1 leekchopped
1cup chicken broth
1 bunch Swiss chardtrimmed and chopped

Instructions

Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Stir in the red pepper, garlic, and portobello mushrooms. Cook and stir until the mushroom has softened and begun to release its liquid, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the leek, and continue cooking until the leek has softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the chicken broth and Swiss chard. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Cover, and simmer until the chard leaves have wilted, about 10 minutes. Remove the lid, and continue cooking until the chard is tender and most of the liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese; let stand until melted.
