Why This Recipe Is So Flavorful
This dish combines tender, flavorful chicken with nutrient-rich kale in a hearty stew. It’s comforting, wholesome, and packed with vitamins and protein. Perfect for a cozy meal any day of the week.
Directions
Pour the chicken broth, vegetable broth, and water into a large pot. Add the chicken, cannellini beans, potatoes, and season everything with pepper, salt, oregano, and garlic powder. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, then lower the heat to medium-high and let it cook until the potatoes are tender when poked with a fork, about 15 minutes. Once the potatoes are soft, stir in the kale and let it cook for another 5 minutes or so until the kale wilts. Give everything a good stir, taste for seasoning, and then it’s ready to serve.
