Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 lbs chopped kale, thick stems stripped and tough ends removed
  • 1 1/2 oz turkey bacon, cut into 1" pieces (4 slices)
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup fat free half-and-half
  • 3 dashes ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Directions

  • Heat oven to broil.
  • In a deep oven-proof skillet, bring a few inches of water to a boil. Add kale and cook over medium-high heat until tender, about 6 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
  • Wipe the skillet dry and return to medium-high heat. Add bacon and cook until crispy, 4-5 minutes. Transfer bacon to a plate.
  • Add onion and garlic to the pan, reduce heat to medium, and cook, stirring, until onion is softened, about 7 minutes.
  • Return bacon to the pan and add half-and-half. Bring to a simmer and cook until slightly reduced, about 5 minutes.
  • Season with pepper to taste. Add kale and stir to combine.
  • Sprinkle evenly with cheese. Broil for 2 to 3 minutes, or until cheese is lightly browned.
