Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat: add diced onion. Cook until onions release some moisture, about 5 minutes. Stir in chickpeas, sausage, sweet potato, and garlic. Add paprika, chipotle powder, coriander, cumin, and salt. Cook for 5 minutes more, stirring occasionally.

Step 2

Pour stock into the pot and bring to a simmer. Cook until sweet potato has softened, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the kale and cook until wilted, about 1 minute. Ladle into bowls: top with cheese and freshly ground pepper.
