Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- pinch of salt
- 1/4 cup pot or pearl barley
- 3/4 lb chorizo or Andouille sausage
- 8 sun-dried tomato halves, thinly sliced, or 1/2 cup thinly sliced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced, or to taste
- 6 stalks kale
- 19 oz can cannellini (white kidney) or Romano beans*, drained
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, bring water and salt to a boil. Add barley; return to a boil, then cover and reduce heat. Simmer for 40 minutes.
- Heat a large non-stick skillet. Meanwhile, dice sausage and then toss it into the pan, stirring to brown lightly. If dried tomatoes are very firm, soak for several minutes in warm water; drain and thinly slice. Add to the skillet. Then stir in garlic and sauté briefly.
- Remove ribs from kale and thinly slice leaves. Add to skillet along with cooked barley and cannellini beans; cook until kale is slightly wilted.

Sprinkle with crushed red pepper, if you’d like more spice.
