GARLIC CHICKEN SOUP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Put the garlic on a piece of foil, brush it with 1 tablespoon of the oil, enclose it in the foil and bake for about 30 minutes, until it is just tender. Unwrap it and let it cool.
• Meanwhile, bring the water to a boil in a pot. Coarsely chop the rabe and add it to the water; when the water returns to a rolling boil, remove the rabe with a slotted spoon. Set the rabe aside and add the pasta to the water. Boil until tender, about 8 minutes; drain and set aside.
• When the garlic is cool enough to handle, peel and chop it.
• Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a heavy 3-quart saucepan. Add the garlic and cook over medium heat, stirring, about 2 minutes, until the garlic begins to coat the bottom of the pan. Pour about 1/2 cup of the broth into the pan, bring to a simmer and stir to dissolve the garlic. Add the remaining broth and the hot pepper. Stir in the rabe and the pasta. Season with salt and serve with Parmesan cheese on the side.

• Season chicken legs generously with salt and pepper. Pour olive oil into a Dutch oven or similar pot over medium-high heat. Add chicken legs and brown well, about 3 minutes per side. Remove and set aside. Add diced yellow onion and cook, stirring frequently, until browned and softened, about 5 minutes. Add carrots, celery, bay leaf and clove and return chicken to pot.
• Add 10 cups water and 1 tablespoon kosher salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook until chicken is tender, but not falling off the bone, about 1 hour. Turn off heat and skim fat from surface of broth. (May be prepared up to this point several hours ahead, or up to a day in advance, and refrigerated.)
• While chicken is cooking, prepare the green garlic shoots: peel tough outer layers and roots, then rinse well. Split shoots lengthwise and chop both white and tender green parts. Set aside.
• Make the tomatillo salsa: drain diced white onion and transfer to a small bowl. Add tomatillo, jalapeño, lime juice and a little salt and stir together.
• Just before serving, reheat soup, add chopped green garlic to pot and simmer 5 minutes. To serve, put one chicken leg in each bowl (alternatively, remove meat from bone and shred) and ladle soup over it. Pass tomatillo salsa and lime wedges at the table.
