To the drippings add the sausage, onion, and garlic. Saute and break up sausage into crumbles, until it is no longer pink and cooked through, about 5-10 minutes. Press CANCEL.

Step 3

Add chicken broth, salt, pepper, crushed red pepper, and potatoes to the Instant Pot. Stir to combine and then seal on lid and close valve.

Step 4

Select HIGH PRESSURE and set time for 5 minutes. When finished cooking, quick release the pressure.

Step 5

Stir in the the kale, handfuls at a time, until wilted. Stir in the evaporated milk, and adjust seasonings to taste. Top soup bowls with reserved crumbled bacon before serving.
