Nutrition per Serving
Ingredients
- 5 cloves Garlic, Minced
- 1 whole Medium Onion, Diced
- 3 cans (14.5 Ounce) Cans Great Norther Beans, Drained And Rinsed
- 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
- 1 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes
- 2 teaspoons Dried Oregano
- 1/4 cup Tomato Paste
- 3/4 cups Dry White Wine
- 1 can (28 Ounces) Whole Or Diced Tomatoes
- 6 cups Low Sodium Chicken Broth
- 1 bunch Kale (more If Desired)
- Plenty Of Torn Fresh Basil
- 4 Tablespoons Butter
- 1-1/2 pound Raw Shrimp, Peeled And Deveined
- 1/4 cup Chopped Fresh Parsley
- Fresh Parmesan Shavings
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium high heat. Add onions and garlic and stir to cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Add tomato paste and stir to cook about 2 minutes, getting lots of flavor in the bottom of the pan. Stir in red pepper flakes and dried oregano; stir and cook for another 30 seconds.
- Pour in wine and whisk, scraping the bottom of the pan a bit as you go. Allow this to bubble up and reduce, cooking until the wine is reduced by half.
- Add canned tomatoes. Drain and rinse beans, then add to pot. Pour in chicken broth. Stir to combine and allow it to simmer for 20-25 minutes. Sprinkle in salt and pepper to taste.
- While the soup is simmering, cook the shrimp: melt butter in a small skillet over medium-high (or high) heat. Throw in the shrimp and chopped parsley and toss to cook until no longer opaque, about 4 minutes. Season with salt. Set aside.
- Rinse the kale and tear it into chunks. Stir into soup. (It'll shrink quite a bit, so don't be afraid when you first add it!) Add a bunch of torn basil and stir. Allow the soup to simmer for another 5 minutes, tasting and adding salt and pepper (or even more red pepper flakes) as needed.
- Transfer soup to a large serving bowl and top with the shrimp, or ladle into individual bowls and top with 3 or 4 shrimp.
- Add big, fat Parmesan or Romano shavings and more torn basil at the end. Utterly divine!
