Instructions
- To a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat, add sausage and red pepper flakes. Cook until the sausage is browned, using a wooden spoon to break up the meat, and stir occasionally (about 10-15 minutes).
- Transfer the cooked sausage to a bowl. Cover to keep warm.
- To the same pot, add the bacon and cook until crisp (about 10-15 minutes). Drain most of the grease from the pot, leaving about 2 tablespoons. Transfer the cooked bacon to the bowl of sausage. Cover to keep warm.
- To the same pot, add the onions and cook until translucent (about 5-8 minutes).
- Add the garlic and cook 1 minute.
- Add the chicken broth, cooked sausage, and cooked bacon to the pot. Stir to combine.
- Increase the heat to high and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, add potatoes and cook until fork tender (about 15 minutes).
- Reduce heat to medium. Add in heavy cream and kale. Simmer until softened (about 5 minutes).
- Salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm, topped with grated parmesan cheese for garnish.
