Kale With Spicy Italian Sausage

1. 1

   *To trim kale, fold the leaf in half, take a sharp knife and slice away the thick stalk (a.k.a rib), then very coarsely chop.

2. 2

   **Note: This dish is also delicious with sweet italian sausage and sausage with fennel. If you're using spicy sausage, be prepared for the dish to be extra spicy, as the kale seems to soak up all the flavor.

3. 3

   Heat pan, cook sausages until cooked through. Remove sausages and let sit.

4. 4

   Reduce heat to low, add 1/2 tbsp olive oil and scrape bottom of pan. Add diced garlic and saute for 1 minute, or until just brown. Add kale and tomatoes, let simmer on low, while tending to sausage.

5. 5

   Slice sausages into 1/2 inch rounds. Add immediately to kale and tomatoes.

6. 6

   Stir to combine in pot, still on low heat. Cover with lid, and let simmer, approx. 5 minutes, or until kale is wilted and tomatoes are cooked down. Stir occasionally, to ensure even cooking.

7. 7

   Divide, sprinkle with freshly grated parmesean, and serve with bread for soaking up the juicy goodness.
