Ingredients
4 skin-on boneless chicken breasts
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 carrot, finely diced
4 celery stalks, finely diced
1 red onion, quartered
1/4 cup oregano leaves
2 bunches Tuscan kale, ribs removed and leaves thinly sliced
1 clove garlic
One 15-ounce can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
2 cups chicken stock
2 cups vegetable stock
2 large eggs
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon dill fronds
Directions
- Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat until hot. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then brush with some of the olive oil. Place on the grill pan skin-side down and cook until it begins to char, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until seared, about 1 minute. Remove the chicken from the heat, let cool, then dice and set aside.
- Meanwhile, heat the remaining olive oil in a medium pot over medium-high heat. Add the carrots, celery, red onion, oregano and kale. Pierce the garlic with a fork and use the fork to stir the vegetables until they begin to caramelize, about 5 minutes. And the diced chicken, chickpeas and all of the stock and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes.
- Whisk the eggs, lemon juice and a pinch of salt together in a medium bowl until frothy. Stirring constantly, gradually add 1/2 cup of the hot soup into the eggs. Stir the egg mixture into the pot of soup and cook, stirring constantly, until the soup thickens, about 1 minute.
- Ladle the soup into bowls, dollop with the yogurt and sprinkle with the dill fronds.
