What You’ll Need

2 heads kale washed, destemmed, and chopped

1/2 a shallot

4 cloves garlic

6 Tbsps lemon

2-3 Tbsps olive oil

salt & pepper to taste

1/4 Cup dried currants

1/3 Cup Balsamic & cracked pepper chickpeas

2 grilled chicken breasts*

*Note - you can use leftover shredded chicken. I like using chicken that’s been marinated in olive oil, lemon juice, thyme, oregano, salt, pepper, and loads of garlic.
