Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 bunch kale, stems removed and discarded
1 tablespoon olive oil
8 ounces kielbasa sausage, sliced thin
1 bunch green onions, sliced
3 cups chicken broth
1 (15.5 ounce) can white beans, drained and rinsed
½ teaspoon salt
1 pinch ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste

Steps:

  • Roll kale leaves into tight tubes and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch strips.
  • Heat oil in a large, heavy saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir kielbasa in hot oil until browned, about 5 minutes. Stir green onion with sausage; cook until onions soften, about 3 minutes. Add kale; cook and stir until kale wilts, about 3 minutes.
  • Pour chicken broth over kielbasa mixture; add beans and stir. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce heat to low, and cook at a simmer until kale is completely tender, about 15 minutes. Season mixture with salt and pepper and top with Parmesan cheese.
