This luxurious side dish is like a heartier version of risotto. We envisioned it as a flavorful and multifaceted dish to add to your Thanksgiving table. If you have trouble finding frozen kale, you can substitute with frozen chopped spinach instead. Add a jammy, soft boiled egg to turn this side into a complete vegetarian entree.
