One-Pot Italian Wedding Soup

One-Pot Italian Wedding Soup

with Pork Meatballs and Kale

The name “wedding soup” supposedly comes from the marriage of hearty greens and broth, but we like to think it’s because the soup is so good, you could make it your one and only. Fluffy ricotta pork meatballs steal the spotlight here, but you’ll also fall in love with the soup’s tenderness (from wilted kale) and mischievous fun side (from bouncy, bubbly couscous).

Instructions

Prep
1

Wash and dry all produce. Halve, peel, and chop onion. Peel carrot, then halve lengthwise. Slice into thin half-moons. Mince or grate garlic.

Make Meatball Mix
2

Combine pork, ½ cup ricotta cheese, panko, ¼ tsp salt, half the garlic, and half the Italian seasoning in a large bowl. Gently mix just until blended.

3

Heat a large drizzle of olive oil in a medium pot over medium-high heat. Add onion, carrot, remaining garlic, remaining Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook until softened, 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add 8 cups water and stock concentrates. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let simmer.

4

While soup simmers, form meatballs: shape meatball mix into round balls (use about a heaping TBSP for each). Repeat until all of mixture is used. TIP: Be gentle with the meat— overworking it will cause the meatballs to lose their fluffiness.

Finish Soup
5

Stir couscous into soup, then carefully drop in meatballs. Return to a simmer and cook until meatballs are no longer pink on outside, about 3 minutes. Add kale. Cook until leaves are tender and couscous is al dente, about 4 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Finish and Serve
6

Ladle soup into bowls. Sprinkle Parmesan over each bowl and serve.
