Ingredients

  • 1 lb. hot Italian sausage casing removed
  • 6 cups reduced sodium chicken stock
  • 6 russet potatoes cut into 1/2 inch cubes
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
  • 4 cups chopped kale
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  • Warm a Dutch oven or 6-quart pot over medium-high heat.
  • Add Italian sausage. Cook, stirring occasionally and breaking up the sausage as desired, until sausage is browned and cooked through.
  • Drain the sausage drippings from the pan.
  • Return the pot to the heat and add the chicken stock, potatoes, salt, and red pepper flakes.
  • Boil until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 15 minutes.
  • Use a slotted spoon to remove 1 cup of potatoes from the pot and place them in a bowl. Mash the potatoes and pour them back into the pot to help thicken the soup.
  • Add the kale and cream; stir to combine.
  • Continue cooking the soup until the kale is wilted and tender, about 3 minutes more.
  • Add additional salt and red pepper flakes to taste.
