Ingredients

Ingredients:

  • 10 slices bacon diced in 1 inch pieces
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup diced yellow onion
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 6 cups chopped lacinato kale
  • 12 ounces rustic bread cubes
  • 1 1/2 - 2 cups chicken broth
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9 x 13 inch baking dish.
  • Cook bacon until cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to a paper towel lined plate. Set aside.
  • Heat butter and olive oil together in a large pan until butter melts. Add in onions and garlic. Cook 2 minutes or until softened. Mix in kale and cook just until wilted, about 1 minute. Add in bread crumbs and toss until mixed well. Pour 1 1/2 cups of broth over the top and mix again. If mixture appears too dry add remaining 1/2 cup of chicken broth. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Spoon stuffing into prepared baking dish. Cover loosely with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes. Uncover, sprinkle Parmesan over the top and bake for an addition 5 - 10 minutes or until cheese melts slightly. Serve hot.
