Ingredients
- 1 pound Italian sausage , mild
- 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 1/2 pound Bacon , chopped
- 1 yellow onion , chopped
- 3 cloves garlic , minced
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 2 pounds Russet potatoes , peeled and chopped
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 bunch fresh kale , tough stems removed
Instructions
- Add the Italian sausage and red pepper flakes to a large dutch oven on medium high heat and cook until well browned. Once that's done, remove the sausage from the pot and discard the fat.
- Reduce the heat to medium, then add in the bacon. Cook until slightly crispy, then remove the bacon - however, you should leave the fat this time around. Add in the onions and garlic, and cook them for 5-7 minutes until softened.
- Finally, add the chicken broth, bacon, potatoes, and kale - bringing the ingredients to a boil. Once the broth reaches a rolling boil, continue to simmer the soup, leaving the pot uncovered for 20 minutes until the potatoes are tender. Add the sausage and heavy cream, stir together, and serve.
