• 3 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
• 1 medium white onion, finely diced
• 3 cups chicken broth
• 3 medium russet potatoes, peeled and cubed
• 4 cups kale, washed and cut
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream
• Kosher salt, to taste
• Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

Instructions

1. Cook bacon in Dutch oven over medium-high heat, for 5 to 7 minutes. Remove bacon to a paper-towel-lined plate and remove all but 1 tablespoon of bacon fat from the pot.
2. Add Italian sausage, breaking it up with a wooden spoon or spatula, and cook for 5 minutes. (drain excess oil if necessary)
3. Add diced onions and garlic. Saute for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring constantly to not burn the garlic.
4. Add the chicken broth and potatoes. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
5. Stir in kale and heavy whipping cream. Bring to a boil for 2 to 3 minutes.
