A delightful dish that combines Italian sausage, potatoes, and kale, perfect for chilly evenings or gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb. hot Italian sausage, casing removed
  • 6 cups reduced sodium chicken stock
  • 6 russet potatoes, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
  • 4 cups chopped kale
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Warm a Dutch oven or a 6-quart pot over medium-high heat. Add the Italian sausage, cooking it while stirring until browned and cooked through. Drain drippings from the pot.
  2. Return the pot to heat and add chicken stock, cubed potatoes, kosher salt, and crushed red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil and cook until potatoes are fork-tender, about 15 minutes.
  3. Use a slotted spoon to scoop out 1 cup of potatoes, mash them, and pour back into the pot, stirring to incorporate.
  4. Add the chopped kale and heavy cream to the pot. Stir together and cook for an additional 3 minutes, until the kale is wilted and tender. Adjust seasoning as desired.

Notes

Consider adding garlic or onions when browning the sausage for more flavor. Substitute heavy cream with half-and-half for a lighter option.
