Kale Cannellini Bean And Chicken Sausage Soup Recipes

KALE, CANNELLINI BEAN AND CHICKEN SAUSAGE SOUP

Steps:

• Heat a large Dutch oven between medium and medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil; once the oil is shimmering, add half the chicken sausage and cook until lightly browned on the first side, about 2 minutes. Use tongs to flip the sausage pieces and cook until lightly browned on the second side, about 2 minutes. Use tongs or a slotted spoon to remove the browned sausage to a bowl. Repeat with the remaining olive oil and chicken sausage, but do not remove the second batch of sausage from the Dutch oven.
• Add back the first batch of sausage along with the chicken broth, Parmesan rind, cannellini beans, lemon juice, a large pinch of salt and a couple grinds of black pepper. Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil, then use a wooden spoon or spatula to scrape up any browned bits at the bottom. Reduce to a strong simmer and cook for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to come together. Stir in the kale and cook until just wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove and discard the Parmesan rind. Season the soup with additional salt and pepper if needed.
• Ladle the soup into bowls, then sprinkle with parsley and Parmesan. Serve with lemon wedges and crusty bread.
