Ingredients

  • 1 bunch lacinato kale leaves removed and thinly chopped
  • 3 bacon slices cut into ¼-inch strips
  • Diamond Crystal kosher salt 
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • splash of Banyuls vinegar or aged balsamic vinegar

Instructions

  • Wash your kale. Rip off the leaves from the stem and chop 'em. Assemble the rest of your ingredients.
  • Sauté the bacon bits in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Once they're crisped up, add in the kale leaves with a dash of salt and pepper.
  • Stir the kale and bacon for a couple of minutes, just until the kale leaves wilt. Then splash on some vinegar. That's it!
