Ingredients 

  • 2 Tbsps extra-virgin olive oil, avocado oil, unrefined organic coconut oil, or ghee
  • 1 large yellow onion, diced
  • 4 ribs celery, sliced
  • 4 medium carrots, peeled and sliced
  • 4 fresh garlic cloves, chopped
  • large pinch red pepper flakes
  • 4 medium potatoes, peeled and diced into 1/2 inch cubes
  • 2 x 14 oz jars artichoke hearts, drained
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 2 Tbsps capers, drained
  • 6 cups chicken bone broth
  • 2 cups milk of choice
  • 1/4 cup Arrowroot powder, gluten-free flour, or cornstarch
  • 2 Tbsps fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tsp lemon zest
  • sea salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 4 cups freshly chopped kale or spinach

optional toppings:

  • freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • lemon wedges

Instructions 

  • Heat your oil in a large stock pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
  • Saute your onion, celery, carrots, garlic, and red pepper flakes for about 5 minutes.
  • Add in the diced potatoes, artichokes, sun-dried tomatoes, capers, and chicken bone broth.
  • Bring your soup to a boil then slightly reduce the heat and allow it to gently simmer for 15 minutes, or just until the potatoes are tender.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk the Arrowroot/flour with 1/2 cup milk until smooth. Then pour this slurry over the rest of your milk and stir to combine well.
  • Once the potatoes are cooked, drizzle in the milk mixture while stirring and continue to simmer until your soup is creamy, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the fresh kale or spinach, fresh lemon zest and juice then season with sea salt and pepper, to your taste.
  • Top with freshly grated parmesan, lemon wedges, and additional red pepper flakes if desired.
  • Enjoy it while it's hot.
