Google's Braised Chicken and Kale

This braised chicken and kale recipe is a wonderful example of how simple, fresh ingredients can create a deeply satisfying meal. By slowly simmering chicken legs with white wine, garlic, and woody herbs, you create a succulent dish that is naturally rich in flavour without the need for heavy sauces. The addition of vibrant kale provides a fresh, earthy balance to the tender meat and savoury broth.

As a diabetes-friendly main course, this dish is naturally low in carbohydrates and high in lean protein, making it an excellent choice for a healthy midweek dinner. The hit of acidity from the lemon wedges at the end cuts through the richness, brightening the entire plate. Serve it in shallow bowls to make the most of the delicious braising juices.
