When cool enough to handle, place in a large clean dish towel and squeeze until dry.

While the greens cool, dry the pot.

Add oil and heat over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Add sliced onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to brown, 2 to 3 minutes.

Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate with a slotted spoon.

Add the greens and cilantro stems.

Cook, stirring to mix the onions and garlic into the greens, 1 to 2 minutes.

Remove from heat and add cilantro leaves, lemon juice and salt.

Serve warm or cold.
