Chicken Cilantro Lime Soup


Serves 8-12





鈥?1 whole chicken, cut up (I use a 5 lb package of thighs)


鈥?1.5 gallons of water (yeah, like I measured it!)


鈥?1 T chicken base (I do not use this because it is filled with MSG 鈥?I use organic chicken broth)





Cover chicken with water and add chicken base (I added 2 C broth). Cook chicken over medium heat for approximately 1.5 hours (until done). Remove chicken; cool and de-bone. Chop meat into small pieces. Save brothy water.





鈥?1 t canola oil (I used olive, of course)


鈥?戮 c diced onion


鈥?戮 c minced tomato (okay, so I used canned, petite diced tomatoes because I鈥檓 lazy)


鈥?陆 T minced garlic


鈥?1 t oregano


鈥?陆 T chile powder


鈥?陆 T salt (more to taste if you don鈥檛 use the chicken base)


鈥?陆 T finely chopped chilis, serrano or jalape帽o (I used japs)


鈥?戮 C corn (more if you don鈥檛 use the hominy)


鈥?2 C chopped chicken


鈥?陆 gallon reserved chicken broth


鈥?陆 t chicken base (didn鈥檛 use it)


鈥?7 oz white hominy, drained


鈥?1 陆 T fresh lime juice


鈥?陆 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped small (Hey, I just left it as is 鈥?chews just as well!)





Place oil in pan and heat. Add onion, tomato, garlic, oregano, chile powder, salt and chiles and saut茅 until onions are translucent. Add corn, chicken, broth, chicken base (yuk) and hominy. Bring to a boil and cook for 15 minutes. Add lime juice and remove from heat. Add chopped cilantro.





Nutritional analysis, per serving, based on 8 servings.


151 calories, 4 gm fat, 8 gm carbs, 23 gm protein, 30 mg cholesterol, 976 mg sodium, 21 percent of calories from fat.





I let the guests put tortilla chips in the soup if they wanted a more tortilla type soup.





Now the disclaimers:





I didn鈥檛 measure ingredients as the recipe described. I doubled the chicken, doubled the corn (when I didn鈥檛 use the hominy), doubled the lime juice, and added chicken stock. I salted as needed since I didn鈥檛 use the chicken base. I just went by taste. I made the soup the night before, reheated, then added the lime juice and fresh cilantro at the last minute. Tasted just as good as when it鈥檚 been made all at once.

did you see they have new soup out we need to learn to copy cat?Chicken %26amp; Gnocchi





A creamy soup made with roasted chicken, traditional Italian dumplings and spinach.









My two favorite soups are both from Ina Garten on the Food Network. Her French Onion is the best I've ever had, and the Shrimp Bisque is literally the BEST SOUP I've ever eaten. It's worth the effort, so make it when you're having some people over in the wintertime and serve it with a nice loaf of bread and a salad. I also love chili and I've tried a million recipes. If you like it too, look online for a Wendy's Chili copycat recipe. You'll find it and definitely give it a try. It's deelish. Good luck!
