  1. Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to package instructions, reserve ½ cup pasta water, and drain.
  2. Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and a big pinch of salt and cook until softened and caramelized, about 10-15 minutes. Add the garlic and chard and cook until the chard just wilts, about 1 minute.

  4. Serve the pasta with parmesan cheese on top.
