Rinse and trim the chard and remove stems from leaves. Tear leaves into bite size pieces. Reserve. In a large saucepan, saute the onion and the garlic in the olive oil until the onion is translucent. Add the sherry and stir. Add the chard, a small amount at a time, and allow to cook down before adding the rice. Add the Arborio rice and stir. Heat the chicken broth, sherry, and port in another saucepan and add, 1/2 cup at a time to the rice. Let the rice absorb each addition of chicken broth before adding the next. When the rice absorbs almost all the liquid, add the olives, nuts, butter, cheese, and chopped ham (if used). Stir to combine. Season with oregano, salt and pepper, to taste.
