Add onions, parsnips and carrots and season with salt and pepper. Cook to soften a bit, 5-6 minutes. Add kale to the pot and wilt in, add nutmeg. Whisk mustard, molasses and stock, pour over top of vegetables and settle chicken back into pot, bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium low, cover and cook 15-20 minutes.

Remove lid, remove chicken and reserve on a plate covered with aluminum foil. Continue simmering the liquids until thickened, about 10 minutes.

Plate and serve with crusty warm bread.
