Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Kale

    Wash the kale thoroughly under running water. Remove the stems and tear the leaves into bite-sized pieces. Dry the kale using a salad spinner or paper towels.

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon, crumble it, and set aside. Leave the bacon fat in the skillet.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Mushrooms

    In the same skillet with the bacon fat, add sliced shiitake mushrooms and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until they are golden brown and crispy. Add minced garlic and sauté for another minute.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the kale to the skillet with mushrooms and garlic. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and black pepper, and toss everything together. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the kale is wilted but still vibrant.

  5. 5

    Add Bacon and Cheese

    Remove the skillet from heat, add the crumbled bacon, and grated Parmesan cheese. Toss well to combine all the ingredients.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Transfer the shredded kale mixture to a serving dish and enjoy warm.
