Instructions

  1. Step 1: Heat 1 tbsp avocado oil in a large pot over medium heat. Season 12 oz chicken thighs with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper, then add to pot and cook for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
  2. Step 2: Add 1 diced large onion to the pot and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened and translucent. Add 2 minced garlic cloves and cook for 1 more minute until fragrant.
  3. Step 3: Return chicken to pot, add 2 peeled and diced medium sweet potatoes, 2 cups chopped kale, 3 cups chicken broth, 1 tbsp coconut aminos, 1 tsp dried thyme, and 1/2 tsp smoked paprika. Bring to a gentle simmer, reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 20-25 minutes until sweet potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
  4. Step 4: Remove lid, stir gently, and cook uncovered for 2-3 minutes to allow flavors to meld. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. Serve hot for balanced energy.
