Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons coconut oil
1 3-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 large turnip (about 10 ounces), peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 cups shredded kale or other winter greens
2 teaspoons ground turmeric
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 15-ounce can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
3 cups shredded rotisserie chicken (skin removed; about 12 ounces)
Fresh lemon juice, to taste
Whole-wheat naan bread, warmed, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the coconut oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Stir in the ginger and garlic; cook until the ginger softens and the garlic just starts browning, about 3 minutes. Add the turnip and kale and cook, stirring occasionally, until the kale is wilted, about 4 minutes.
  • Add the turmeric and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper; stir until the vegetables are coated. Add the chicken broth and 3 cups water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the turnip is just tender, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the chickpeas and chicken to the pot. Increase the heat to medium high and return the soup to a simmer. Cook until the chicken is warmed through, about 5 minutes. Season with salt, pepper and a squeeze of lemon juice. Serve with naan.

I'm not a big fan of kale, but this soup changed my mind. The kale is cooked perfectly and it doesn't have a bitter taste. The soup is also very creamy and flavorful.
