Directions

  1. 1

    Bring a large, high-sided pan up to medium heat. Then, add chopped bacon and spread out evenly. Let cook, undisturbed, for 3-4 minutes. Stir and continue cooking for another 3-4 minutes, until crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove the bacon bits from the pan, and transfer them to a paper-towel lined plate. Pour out some of the excess bacon grease, leaving just enough to coat the bottom of the pan.

  2. 2

    Add onion to the pan and season with a light pinch of kosher salt. Sauté, stirring occasionally, for 4 minutes, or until onion is beginning to turn translucent. Add in garlic, stir, and cook until fragrant, another minute. Then, add in the turkey sausage and use your spatula to break it apart. Continue cooking until browned through, about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Deglaze the pan with chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits at the bottom of the pan. Then, add in the heavy cream and season with black pepper & red pepper flakes to taste. Allow the sauce to come up to a gentle boil.

  4. 4

    Add in the gnocchi, great northern beans and kale and stir, ensuring that the gnocchi is mostly submerged. Cover the pan with a lid and let cook for 5 minutes, or until gnocchi is tender.

  5. 5

    Reduce heat to low, add back in the crispy bacon bits, parmesan and lemon juice. Stir. Taste and adjust kosher salt, black pepper & red pepper flakes to taste. Enjoy!
