Ingredients

Directions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and break into bite-sized pieces with your spatula. Brown the sausage until cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove to a plate.
  2. Add the turnip, carrots, parsnips, potatoes, onion, salt and pepper to the skillet, then stir to combine. Cook to begin to brown the vegetables, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the kale, garlic and sage. Add the chicken stock and return the sausage to the skillet. Stir, letting the stock reduce a little, and allow the vegetables to finish cooking, 5 to 7 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, mix the sour cream, hot sauce and lemon juice together in a small bowl. Set aside.
  4. Give the skillet a final stir, then taste and adjust the seasoning. Serve with a few spoonfuls of the sour cream sauce on top, and with some crusty bread.
