Ingredients

  • 2 cartons (32 oz. each) chicken broth
  • 3 cups shredded cooked chicken (about 1.5 lbs)
  • 1 can condensed cream of chicken soup
  • 1 tsp. rosemary*
    • (*I used about 1 tsp. fresh rosemary and then ½ tsp. dried rosemary, but if you’re using all dried, I’d use 1 tsp.)
  • ½ tsp. nutmeg
  • ½ tsp. ground black pepper (plus freshly ground pepper to taste)
  • ¼ tsp. smoked paprika
  • 1 can buttermilk biscuits
  • 1 – 1.5 cup chopped celery
  • 1 – 1.5 cup chopped carrots
  • 1 chopped onion
  • 2 tsp. butter
  • Half bag of pre-washed and chopped kale

Directions

  1. Heat butter and saute onions until soft (about 5 minutes).
  2. Meanwhile, in a large Dutch oven, heat broth, chicken, soup, and spices to boiling over medium-high; return to a low boil.
  3. On a lightly floured surface, roll or pat each biscuit to 1/8-inch thickness; cut into 1/2-inch strips.
  4. Drop strips, one at a time, into boiling chicken mixture. Add carrots, celery, and onions.  Reduce heat to low.    Simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Add kale and salt & freshly ground pepper to taste. Cover and simmer an additional 6-7 minutes.
