Ingredients
- 1 tbsp ghee, or avocado oil
- 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
- 1 tsp sea salt, divided
- 1 tsp pepper, divided
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 celery, diced
- 3 carrots, diced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp ginger, grated
- 4 cups homemade bone broth
- 2 tsp turmeric
- 1 tsp thyme
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 tsp red curry paste
- 1 bunch of kale, stems removed and chopped
- 1 can full fat coconut milk
Instructions
- Heat a large dutch oven (or a large pot) to medium heat and add the ghee. Once melted, add the chicken breast, ½ tsp sea salt, and ½ tsp pepper. Sear on one side for 4-5 minutes, flip, and sear on the other side for 4-5 minutes. You’re looking for a nice golden color on the chicken.
- Add the onion, celery, and carrots into the pot, along with the remaining sea salt and pepper. Saute the veggies with the chicken for 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and saute for 1 minute.
- Next, pour in the broth. Stir in the turmeric, thyme, bay leaf, and red curry paste. Simmer for 20 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked through.
- Remove the chicken from the soup and turn the heat off. Shred chicken, or dice tit into bite-size pieces. Stir in the kale and coconut milk. Lastly, add the chicken pieces back into the soup.
- Serve as is, with your favorite crusty bread, or even over rice!
