The delicate sauce, made with vegetable stock, kale, and creamy gouda can be poured over a number of meats, including turkey and chicken.

INGREDIENTS

4 pork loins (7 ounces each)
Salt and cracked black pepper, to taste
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
6 garlic cloves, finely minced
1 small yellow onion, minced
1 teaspoon red chili pepper flakes, crushed
1/3 cup vegetable stock
1¾ cups heavy cream
3 cups kale
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
¼ cup Gouda cheese
1 tablespoon parsley, chopped

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Season the pork with salt and pepper on both sides, set aside. In a large pan, heat oil over medium high-heat, and sear in the hot pan for 3–5 minutes on each side depending on the thickness, or until cooked ¾ of the way. Remove pork from the pan and set aside.
2. Melt butter in the same pan in the remaining cooking juices. Add garlic, onion, and red crushed chili pepper and stir-fry 2 minutes. Add in the vegetable stock, and allow time to reduce a little.
3. Reduce heat to low heat, add the heavy cream, and bring the creamy sauce to a simmer. Add salt and pepper to taste.
4. Add the kale leaves and allow to wilt in the sauce, and stir in the Gouda cheese. Cook for another 3 minutes. Return the pork to the pan, add the parsley, and cook for 2 minutes. Serve.
