  • ½ teaspoon chile de arbol, plus more to taste

  3. Add tomatoes and cook 5 minutes. Add cooked turnip greens and chicken stock, raise heat to high, and boil 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium low and taste for seasoning, adding salt and more chile de arbol if desired. Simmer 15 minutes and taste again for seasoning.
