Ingredients
 

  • 12 oz sausage (cut into ¼-inch slices) I used Al Fresco Rotisserie-Style Chicken Sausage
  • 1 pound fresh cherry tomatoes
  • 2 garlic cloves (minced)
  • cans (15 oz each can) cannellini beans or white beans (rinsed and drained)
  • ½ teaspoon salt (add more according to your liking)
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper (add more according to your liking)
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme (add more according to your liking)
  • ½ teaspoon dried basil (add more according to your liking)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cups torn kale leaves
  • 3 tablespoon unsalted butter
optional:
  • ¼ cup broth (if needed)

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausages, cook and keep stirring for 1 minute.
  2. Add cherry tomatoes, garlic, thyme, basil, salt and pepper, cook and stir to combine (for about 2 minutes).
    Start bursting some of the tomatoes with the back of the wooden spoon or spatula. You want to do this because it gives a nice acidic taste, but keep enough of the whole as it’s nice to bite into them (and have that pop!), and also to keep the acidic level right.
  3. Add white beans, stir to coat for about 1 minute.
    optional: add ¼ cup of broth if the mixture is too dry.
  4. Add kale, covered and keep cooking until the kale is wilted.
  5. Remove from the heat and stir in the butter until melted. Serve and enjoy!
