Ingredients

  • 2 strips bacon chopped
  • 1 medium yellow onion chopped
  • 1 jalapeno pepper chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic chopped
  • 1 bunch mustard greens stemmed and chopped
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 spicy Italian sausages
  • 1 jalapeno pepper sliced into rings

Instructions

  • Heat a pot to medium heat and add bacon. Cook a couple minutes until the fat begins to render.
  • Add onion and chopped jalapeno pepper. Stir and cook about 5 minutes to soften.
  • Add garlic and stir. Cook another minute.
  • Add chopped mustard greens in 2 batches and stir. Cook until the bunch is wilted.
  • Add chicken broth and stir. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and cook about 15 minutes.
  • While mustard greens are cooking, heat a separate pan to medium heat and add olive oil. Heat through.
  • Add Italian sausages and sliced jalapeno rings. Cook 10-12 minutes, until sausages are charred and cooked through. The jalapeno peppers will be nicely charred as well.
  • Remove lid from mustard greens and cook another minute or 2 to reduce the liquid a bit.
  • Serve the sausages and jalapeno peppers over the greens.
