Put the chicken thighs in a large pot and season well with oregano, salt, and pepper. Add the bay leaves and miso paste. Fill the pot with water and bring it to a rolling boil. Lower the heat to medium and cook until the thighs are no longer pink in the centers and the juices run clear, 30 to 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer placed near the bone should register 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Take the thighs and bay leaves out of the pot. Pull the meat from the bones and chop it. Discard the bones and bay leaves, then return the meat to the pot. Reduce the heat to medium-low; add the celery, carrots, and dill. Stir, then add the butternut squash, cabbage, and turnip. Cook for 5 to 10 minutes more.

Add the leek, bell pepper, and jalapeno pepper to the pot. Cook until the squash and turnip are soft, about 30 minutes more. Add salt to taste.

How easyChef Pro Scores This Recipe
easyChef Pro gives every recipe a health score from 0 to 100, built from more than 30 nutritional parameters including nutrient density, energy density and glycemic impact. It calculates rather than estimates, so the same recipe returns the same score every time.
The number is traceable. You can see exactly which nutrient moved it, so a dish scoring 78 might show fiber pushing it up while sodium pulls it down, alongside the NOVA processing level of each ingredient.
Your health goal changes the calculation itself, not just a filter. easyChef Pro applies clinically derived weighting across six health dimensions, which is why the same dish can score well for one goal and poorly for another.
Swap an ingredient or change the serving size and that math changes with it. Scoring your own version is the only way to see what your kitchen actually produces.
