Instructions

  • In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the onion.
    1 tablespoon olive oil, ½ cup onion
  • Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion begins to caramelize, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the garlic, paprika, and tomato paste. Cook, stirring, until everything is well-combined, about 1 minute.
    2 cloves garlic, 1 tablespoon smoked paprika, 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • Add the broth and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes.
    ½ cup low-sodium vegetable broth
  • Once most of the broth evaporates and the mixture is thick, stir in the water, tomatoes, and chickpeas.
    ½ cup water, 15 ounces (1 can) crushed or diced tomatoes, 15 ounces (1 can) chickpeas
  • Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes or until the mixture has thickened to your desired consistency.
  • Add the kale and cook until it wilts, about 1 minute.
    ½ cup chopped kale
