Instructions

    1.
    Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook until crisp and golden. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving the rendered fat in the pan.
    2.
    Melt the butter in the same skillet with the bacon fat. Thinly slice the leeks and add them to the skillet, sautéing gently for about a minute to soften. Add the kale, season with salt and pepper, and stir to combine. Cook for another minute, just until the kale wilts slightly.
    3.
    Roughly tear the cooked bacon into pieces and add them to the vegetables in the skillet. Toss to combine and serve immediately.
