Recipe by Woman's Day Kitchen Use store-bought rotisserie chicken instead of cooking your own to make chicken soup easy. Fresh veggies like kale and winter squash and fiber-packed beans ensure this soup is loaded with health-boosting nutrients.

Ingredients

  • 1 rotisserie chicken
  • 2 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 large onion
  • kosher salt
  • Pepper
  • 2 stalk celery
  • 3 clove garlic
  • 6 sprig fresh thyme
  • 2 tbsp. tomato paste
  • 1 medium butternut squash
  • 1 bunch kale
  • 1 can low-sodium white beans

Instructions

  1. Remove and discard the skin from the rotisserie chicken. Shred the meat into a bowl and set aside. Place the carcass and bones in a medium pot. Add 8 cups water, cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, season with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, for 8 minutes. Add the celery, garlic, and thyme and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is lightly golden brown around the edges, 4 to 6 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
  3. Strain the chicken mixture into the vegetable mixture and discard the bones. Add the squash and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the squash is just tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the kale, beans, and shredded chicken. Cook, stirring, until the kale is just tender, about 3 minutes. Discard the thyme sprigs before serving.
