For a vegetarian version, simply omit the chicken and use vegetable broth instead of chicken stock. You may want to add a can of chickpeas or another protein source. Feel free to adjust the amount of crushed red pepper to suit your spice preference. A pinch of cayenne pepper can also be used for extra heat. If you don't have collard greens, kale or spinach can be used as a substitute. Add them in the last 10 minutes of cooking time. This stew tastes even better the next day, as the flavors have had time to meld together. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
