Stir-Fried Kale and Bacon

By adriennehannis

Ingredients

• 1 bunch of lancinato kale, leaves removed and thinly chopped
• 3 slices of bacon, cut in 1/4” strips
• splash of Banyuls vinegar (the original recipe uses a squeeze of lemon)
• Kosher salt
• Freshly ground black pepper

Preparation

Step 1

I washed and chopped the kale leaves…

…and assembled the rest of my ingredients.

I sauteed the bacon bits in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Once they were crisp…

…I added in the kale leaves with a dash of salt and pepper.

I stirred the kale and bacon for a couple minutes and then splashed on some vinegar.

Super quick and yummy! The slightly wilted bitter greens are well-balanced with the bacon and vinegar. From now on, this speedy and simple cooking method will be the only way I make my hearty greens! Another shortcut to deliciousness…
