Heat the oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7. Melt a knob of butter in a large frying pan then fry the onion until soft. Add the chard and cook for 5 minutes or until completely wilted and tender. Add the garlic and peppers, cook for 1 minute, then season. Press against the pan with a wooden spoon to squeeze out any excess juices and pour them away. Allow to cool for a few minutes.
