Instructions:

​

  1. Cook rice according to package instructions; set aside.

  2. Melt butter in a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add garlic, mushrooms, leek and carrot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5-6 minutes.

  3. Whisk in flour until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Stir in sherry, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.

  4. Whisk in chicken broth (or vegetable broth), thyme and bay leaves. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer, partially covered, for 10-15 minutes. Stir in rice until flavors have blended, an additional 5-10 minutes.

  5. Stir in kale, heavy whipping cream and parsley until the kale has wilted, about 2-3 minutes; season with salt and pepper, to taste.

  6. Serve immediately.
