Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound Italian sausage, removed from casings
  • 1 medium yellow onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 cups chicken broth
  • 1 pound Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (or more, to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 pound fresh kale, stems removed and chopped
  • 1 pound gnocchi
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • Fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  • In a large pot or Dutch oven, brown the Italian sausage over medium-high heat. Crumble the sausage as it cooks and cook until browned and cooked through. Remove the sausage from the pot and set aside, leaving the rendered fat in the pot.
  • Add the diced onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  • Pour in the chicken broth and add the diced potatoes, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
  • Stir in the chopped kale and cook until wilted, about 3-5 minutes.
  • Add the cooked sausage and gnocchi to the pot. Simmer until the gnocchi are tender and float to the surface, about 3-5 minutes.
  • Stir in the heavy cream and lemon juice. Heat through, but do not boil.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
