Updated at: Thu, 21 Nov 2024 15:38:55 GMT

Step 1

Chop your onions, garlic, and potatoes. Thinly slice your bacon and remove the casings from your sausages.

Step 2

In a large pot, cook the bacon until crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove all the bacon from the pot. Place in a small bowl and set aside.

Step 3

Remove all but about 1 tbsp of the rendered bacon fat from the pot. Add Italian sausages and cook until browned. Use the end of your wooden spoon to break up the sausages until they are bite-sized crumbles. Remove the sausages and place in a separate bowl. Set aside.

Step 4

Add the onions and cook until they are translucent. This may take about 8-10 minutes. Add the garlic and saute for just a minute, then add potatoes and the sausage you cooked earlier and mix.

Step 5

Add chicken broth and water. Mix and bring the light boil then simmer with lid closed for 15 minutes.

Step 6

While the broth is simmering, wash and chop your kale and get your seasonings ready (salt, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, red pepper flakes).

Step 7

Remove the lid and add heavy cream, seasonings, and kale. Pop the lid back on and allow to simmer for an additional 3-5 minutes, then turn off the heat.

Step 8

Add grated parmesan and fresh parsley and stir until well mixed. Add additional salt and pepper if needed to taste.

Step 9

Ladle the soup into individual bowls and top with additional parmesan and about 1.5 tbsp of the cooked bacon from earlier.
