Print This Recipe



INGREDIENTS

3 thick slices bacon, preferably apple-wood smoked
2 large cloves garlic, minced
2 small tender leeks, split, rinsed, and thinly sliced
1 large Savoy cabbage, core removed, thinly sliced
1 cup chicken stock or broth
1/4 cup dry white wine
1-1/4 cups cooked white beans
1 tablespoon finely julienned fresh sage
1 tablespoon finely julienned snipped chives
Freshly ground pepper

Cook bacon in a 12-inch non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until crisp, about 3 minutes. Use slotted spoon to set bacon aside. Drain off all but 2 tablespoons fat.

Add garlic and leeks to skillet. Cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add cabbage, chicken stock, white wine and beans. Gently toss to combine.

Simmer until cabbage is just beginning to wilt, about 3 minutes. Crumble bacon. Toss cooked mixture with bacon, sage, chives, and pepper. Adjust seasonings. Serve immediately.
