• 4 cans Cannellini Beans
• 6 cups Chicken Broth
• 1½ cups Yellow Onions, chopped

• 1 (4-ounce) Parmesan cheese rind plus ⅔ cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
• 1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1½ teaspoons salt, divided
• 2 Chicken Breast
• 4 cups Kale
• 1½ tablespoons Lemon Juice

Preparation steps

1. Combine drained soaked beans, 6 cups broth, 1½ cups onion, 1½ cups carrots, 1 (4-ounce) Parmesan rind and 1 teaspoon each rosemary, garlic powder and salt in a 6-quart slow cooker. Place chicken on top of the mixture. Cover and cook on Low until the beans and vegetables are tender, 7 to 8 hours.
2. Transfer the chicken to a clean cutting board and transfer about ¾ cup of the beans to a small bowl; let the chicken stand until cool enough to handle, about 10 minutes. Shred the chicken, discarding skin and bones. Mash the beans with the back of a fork until creamy.
3. Meanwhile, stir 4 cups kale into the mixture in the slow cooker. Cover and cook on High until the kale is tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
4. Return the chicken to the slow cooker and stir in the mashed beans, 1½ tablespoons lemon juice, ½ teaspoon pepper and the remaining ½ teaspoon salt. Discard the Parmesan rind. Divide the stew among 8 bowls; drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil and sprinkle with ⅔ cup Parmesan and ¼ cup parsley.
