Time 40m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Kosher salt
1 cup pearl onions, peeled
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 cup homemade chicken stock or store-bought chicken broth
1 1/4 pounds baby kale
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil over high heat, add the pearl onions and cook 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon, pat dry and set aside.
  • Melt the butter in a large Dutch oven over medium heat, stir in the flour, nutmeg and some salt and pepper and cook until the flour is well incorporated and the raw flavor cooks out, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Add the cream and chicken stock, bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer until thickened, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the pearl onions, then the kale, little by little, and cook until it wilts, about 5 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat, stir in the Parmesan, taste, and adjust seasonings. Serve hot.

This recipe was a great way to use up some leftover kale. The kale was tender and flavorful, and the sauce was creamy and rich. The pearl onions added a nice sweetness and crunch. I would definitely make this recipe again.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste. The sauce was very heavy and the kale was a bit too oily. I think it would have been better with a lighter sauce.

Overall, this was a good recipe. The kale was tender and the sauce was creamy and flavorful. However, I found that the pearl onions were a bit too sweet for my taste. Next time, I would use less of them.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could have used some more salt and pepper. The kale was also a bit tough, even though I cooked it for the recommended amount of time.

I'm not a huge fan of kale, but this recipe changed my mind. The cream sauce and pearl onions really mellowed out the flavor of the kale, and it was actually quite enjoyable. I'll definitely be making this again.
