Wine Braised Kale

Made this for some business partners and they loved it. This recipe is sure to WOW any house guest!


Ingredients:
  • 1 lb kale (pre-packaged)
  • 4  strips of bacon (cut into lardons)
  • 1 onion (diced)
  • 3 cloves of garlic (minced)
  • 1 cup of white wine
  • 1/2 cup chicken stock
  • 1 tbs Evoo
  • 2 tbs butter
Directions:
Step 1: Heat pan to medium high and add EVOO to the pan. Throw bacon in and let cook until almost crispy and then add in the onions. Saute and season with salt and pepper.
Step 2: Add in garlic and saute for another minute before adding in the kale. Mix all ingredients together and saute the kale for about 5 minutes.
Step 3: Add in wine, chicken stock, and butter and season with more salt and pepper. Place a lid over pot and let braise for 20 minutes.
Step 4: Periodically check on kale and stir. Add more liquid if necessary. Kale is done once it is wilted and color has turned to a forest green.
Step 5: serve immediately
