In a heavy 8−quart pan, heat the olive oil over high heat. Add the chorizo  
and render the sausage for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the onions, celery, and  
carrots, saute for 2 minutes or until the vegetables start to wilt. Season  
the vegetables with salt and pepper. Add the kale, garlic, bouquet, chicken  
stock and red pepper flakes. Bring the liquid up to a boil and reduce the  
heat to medium. Simmer the soup for 30 minutes. Add the clams and continue  
to simmer for 8 to 10 minutes. Discard any clams that do not open. Stir in  
the cilantro. Re−season the soup with salt and pepper. The soup can either  
be served with clams in the shells or the clams can be remove from the soup,  
shells removed, and clam meats added back to the soup. Serve the soup with  
crusty garlic bread. This recipe yields about 8 servings.
