Instructions

In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat. Add carrots and onion; cook 3 to 4 minutes or until vegetables begin to soften, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium; add garlic and mushrooms. Cook 5 to 6 minutes or until mushrooms are browned; stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and stir in thyme, salt and pepper. Transfer mushroom mixture to medium bowl; return pot to stove and increase heat to medium-high.

Add chicken and remaining 1 tablespoon of butter to pot. Cook 4 to 5 minutes or until chicken is lightly browned (it does not need to be cooked all the way through at this point); stirring occasionally. If using, stir in wine; cook 1 minute. Add chicken broth; heat to boiling over medium-high heat. Add tortellini; cook 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add kale; cook an additional 4 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Reduce heat to medium-low. Stir in cream and mushroom mixture; cook 2 minutes or until mushrooms are warmed through. Serve immediately.
