Instructions

Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the pancetta and cook until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the pan with a slotted spoon and set aside.

Thinly slice the shallot and garlic, and finely chop the rosemary. Add the shallot, garlic, rosemary, and thyme to the Dutch oven/saucepan used for the pancetta. Add the butter. Sweat gently over low/medium heat for a few minutes until tender and fragrant.

Add the stock and bring to a gentle boil. You can use vegetable stock if preferred. Season with salt and pepper to taste, depending on the stock's saltiness. Reduce heat and simmer for five minutes.

Roughly shred the cooked turkey into bite-sized chunks. Trim the bases of the Brussels sprouts and remove any tough or wilted outer leaves. Add the Brussels sprouts and shredded turkey to the stock. Simmer for 5-6 minutes to heat the turkey and cook the sprouts.

Add the kale to the saucepan and stir to combine. Simmer for a minute or two until the kale wilts. Ensure the turkey is piping hot.

Divide the soup among four serving bowls. Top each bowl with crispy pancetta. Drizzle each bowl with 1/2 a tablespoon of olive oil. Serve immediately.
