Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Step 2

Over medium heat, heat 1 tbsp oil in a 10-inch or 12-inch oven-safe skillet. Using a knife, create 4 or 5 cuts about ¼-inch deep on each sausage. Once the oil is hot, place the sausages in the oil cut-side down. Sauté the sausage until it is browned, 3-5 minutes. Turn and brown the other side, 3-5 minutes. Once the sausage is browned on both sides, remove the meat from the skillet.

Step 3

Turn the skillet to medium-low heat and add the prepared onion and salt. Sauté the onion until soft and beginning to brown, 4-6 minutes. Add garlic and red pepper flakes. Stir the garlic for 30 seconds to warm. Add the kale and soy sauce and sauté the kale in the soy sauce until it is wilted, 3-4 minutes. Add the white beans, lemon juice, ¾ of the Parmesan cheese, and the chicken stock. Stir to combine and bring the stock to a simmer. Once the stock is simmering, add the browned sausage on top of the mixture.

Step 4

Place the skillet in the preheated 350°F oven. Bake until the sausage and beans are warmed through, 8-10 minutes. Once baked, remove the skillet from the oven and sprinkle with the remaining cheese and squeeze with additional lemon juice.
