====Ingredients====
  *Vegetable oil: 1/4 cup + 2 tbsp \\ \\ 
  *Garlic: 6 cloves, thinly sliced \\ \\ 
  *Red pepper flakes: 2 tsp \\ \\ 
  *Onion: 1 small, finely diced \\ \\ 
  *White rice: 2/3 cup, preferably short grain, rinsed and drained

  *Kosher salt: 2 1/2 tsp, divided \\ \\ 
  *Tuscan kale: 1 large bunch \\ \\ 
  *Lemon: 1
  *Pepper: to taste

====Notes====
  *Double the garlic chile oil if you want, it's good on everything

====Instructions====
  -Make the garlic chile oil: heat vegetable oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and cook, swirling pan often, until golden brown, 3 - 5 minutes. The garlic will continue to cook and darken slightly after it's off the heat. Transfer to a small bowl, leaving 1 tbsp of the oil in the pot. Stir red pepper flakes into the bowl and set aside
  -Add onion to the 1 tbsp of garlic oil still in the pot. Cook over medium heat until onion is translucent and beginning to take on some color, about 5 minutes
  -Pour in 8 cups of water, stir in rice, chicken thighs, and 1 tsp salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and bring to a gentle simmer. Simmer uncovered until chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes
  -Transfer chicken to a plate and let sit until cool enough to handle. Shred with two forks. Continue to simmer soup while prepping the rest of the ingredients
  -Strip kale leaves off center ribs and discard the ribs. Rinse kale thoroughly in cold water then thinly sliced the leaves crosswise
  -Add kale and shredded chicken to pot. Continue to simmer, stirring occasionally, until kale is bright green and chicken is warmed through, about 5 minutes
  -Remove pot from heat. Squeeze in lemon juice, season with 2 tsp salt and pepper to taste. Stir to combine
  -Divide among bowls. Drizzle with garlic chile oil and more black pepper
