Description

A rich, creamy chicken and kale soup thickened with cauliflower purée for a high-protein, gluten-free experience.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs chicken breast, cubed
  • 1 head cauliflower, steamed and puréed
  • 4 cups chopped kale
  • 8 cups chicken bone broth
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp fresh thyme
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat and sear chicken cubes until browned on all sides.
  2. Remove chicken and sauté diced onions and garlic until translucent.
  3. Deglaze the pot with a splash of bone broth, scraping the bottom to release the brown bits.
  4. Return chicken to the pot and add the remaining broth and fresh thyme; simmer for 15 minutes.
  5. Whisk in the puréed cauliflower until the soup reaches a creamy consistency.
  6. Stir in the chopped kale and cook for another 5 minutes until wilted.
  7. Season with salt and pepper, then serve hot.
