Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound Italian sausage
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium yellow onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 3 cups Russet potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cups chopped kale
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add Italian sausage and cook until browned, breaking it into small pieces.
  2. Add diced onion and cook for 5 minutes until softened. Stir in garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  3. Pour in chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Add diced potatoes and cook for 15 to 20 minutes until potatoes are fork-tender.
  4. Stir in heavy cream and kale. Let simmer for another 5 minutes until kale is wilted and soup is creamy.
  5. Season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes to taste. Serve hot with crusty bread.

Notes

  • Use mild or spicy sausage based on your heat preference.
  • Yukon Gold potatoes can be used for a creamier texture.
  • For a lighter version, swap heavy cream with half-and-half or coconut milk.
