Ingredients
- 1/4 cup olive oil, divided
- half an onion, finely chopped
- 3 carrots, finely chopped
- 3 ribs celery, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary and/or 2 sprigs fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
- 1 can cannellini or navy beans, rinsed and drained
- 3 cups shredded kale
- 2 -3 cups cooked shredded chicken or turkey (see notes)
- 5 cups chicken broth (I like the Better Than Bouillon broth base, or bone broth)
- juice of two lemons
- salt and pepper to taste
- grated Parmesan, bread, and butter for serving
Steps
-
In a large soup pot, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium high heat. Add onion, carrots, and celery. Saute for 5-8 minutes or until very soft.
-
Add the garlic, Italian seasoning, rosemary sprigs, thyme sprigs, and salt. Let it get nice and delicious for a minute, stirring to avoid burning or browning the garlic.
-
Add the beans, kale, chicken, broth, and remaining olive oil (optional). Bring to a low simmer for 10-20 minutes, until the kale is wilted. If you have time to cook it for a while longer over low heat, great. Delicious.
-
Pull out the herb stems. Add lemon juice, more salt, fresh black pepper to taste (all optional and to taste)! Top with parm and serve with a thick slice of bread, a thick shmear of butter, and a pinch of rosemary salt. Fresh, bright, yummy!
