Effort:
Easy
Ingredients:
5 skinless boneless chicken
breast -- cooked
1 cup onions -- chopped
1 cup celery -- chopped
Cooked chopped bacon as you like
1 pint heavy whipping cream
1 teaspoon minced garlic
3 cans chicken broth -- (3 to 4)
1 1/2 teaspoons fennel seed
1 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 can chopped artichoke hearts
2 tablespoons capers -- or more
2 cups kale -- cut in half, then sliced
Direction:
This recipe is mostly low carb
and can be varied according to your needs and taste. It is
very meaty and rich. Try several different versions with
different meat and vegetables. Adjust the heat as needed
throughout the recipe to keep it simmering but donā t let it
get dry and burnt. It is best to prepare the meat first so you
are ready when the time is right. I like to grill up several
boneless and skinless chicken breasts and a few green onions
for a smoky flavor as the main ingredient. Start with a large
pot. Put in enough olive oi l and/or butter to cover the
bottom and heat. Next add chopped onion and celery stalks. Let
this cook until translucent. Then add seasonings like dried or
fresh rosemary and cilantro, and parsley. Then add some dried
fennel seeds. Amounts as you wish. Next add about as much
chopped up and fried bacon as you desire. I like to buy the
pre-cooked packages at the store. Let is cook over a medium
heat. Add the meat (chicken in this case). Then put in about a
cup of white or red wine. Next add two to four cans of chicken
broth and let it simmer some more. Last, you can pour in a
pint of heavy cream and stir it in. I like to chop up some
fresh kale or other greens into bite sized pieces and throw
them in last then turn off the heat. You can use Italian
sausag e instead of chicken and Iāve also tried chopped up
lamb or beef with good results. Again, adjust to your own diet
or taste. Iāve added a small amount of capers and a can of
artichoke hearts (chop the artichoke hearts into big chunks).
