Variations on a theme: Chicken and Cannellini bean soup with Kale.
Hey, I never said I was innovative, did I?
I think you know how this all starts:
Kale. Chop it, wash it.
Onion. Slice it.
Garlic. Mince it.
Chicken thighs. Bite size chunks.
Season the chicken chunks with salt, and this stuff. I know, it feels like cheating to me, too.
Here are some other things you'll need:
Okay. Brown the chicken in a bit of olive oil.
Remove, and add the pepper flakes and the bay leaf. Reduce heat.
After 30 seconds or so, add the onion. Brown.
Add garlic.
Deglaze with the wine. Scrape the bottom of the pot to get the fond up.
Dump the kale in.
Return the chicken, add the beans and the tomato.
Add stock until you like the consistency. Add the nam pla, and the thyme. Simmer for half an hour to let the flavors mingle. After 20 minutes, add the vinegar.
Serve with parmesan cheese, and the chopped parsley.
