Begin by prepping the greens. Rinse the kale and Swiss chard thoroughly under cold water. Pat them dry using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Remove the thick stems from the kale and Swiss chard. Tear the leaves into large, manageable pieces.
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, juice of one lemon, sea salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Whisk until well combined to make the dressing.
Place the greens in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with half of the lemon and garlic dressing. Gently toss the greens to ensure they are evenly coated.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. If using a stove-top grill pan, heat it over medium-high heat.
Once the grill is hot, place the greens directly on the grill. If using a grill pan, work in batches to avoid overcrowding. Grill for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the greens have charred grill marks and are slightly wilted.
Remove the greens from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter.
Drizzle the remaining lemon and garlic dressing over the grilled greens.
Serve immediately as a refreshing side dish, and enjoy the burst of citrus and savory garlic flavors.
