Ingredients
  

  • 1 Chicken Carcass
  • 1 cup Olive Oil
  • 1 knob Butter

  • A handful of Parsley

Instructions
 

  • Create The Chicken Base: Start by roasting the chicken carcass. Please place it in a roasting pan and drizzle with olive oil. Roast in the oven at 400°F (200°C) until golden brown and flavorful. In a large pot, heat olive oil and add the knob of butter for richness.
  • Aromatics Galore: Chop onions, carrots, Celery, garlic, and shallots. Add them to the pot, sautéing until they become tender and fragrant.
  • Introduce The Chicken Magic: Squeeze in the juice of one lemon, adding a zesty kick to the broth. Break apart the roasted chicken carcass and toss it into the pot, letting the flavors mingle.
  • Simmer And Infuse: Pour enough water to cover the ingredients, then toss whole peppercorns. Allow the pot to simmer on low heat, letting the aroma fill your kitchen.
  • Leafy Goodness: Chop parsley, kale, and cavalo nero, and add them to the pot for a burst of color and nutrients. Throw in the baby spinach and let it wilt into the broth.
  • Season To Perfection: Season with salt and black pepper, adjusting according to your taste preference.
  • Strain And Serve: Once the flavors have melded beautifully, strain the soup to get a clear, hearty broth.
  • Plate Up: Ladle the soup into bowls, ensuring each serving is a medley of chicken, veggies, and leafy greens.
