For variety... Thanks!Chicken soup recipes pretty please and Thank you... The more the better....?
2 leeks, chopped


4-5 carrots, chopped


2 -3 zucchini, sliced

1 1/2 tsp dried thyme, 1 tbsp dried parsley, 2 bay leaves, salt %26amp; pepper


1 whole 3-lb chicken


Olive oil


6 cups water


2 cups brown rice





Saute the leeks, carrots and celery in the olive oil in a large pot or pressure cooker. When they are soft, add the chicken and seasonings, water, zucchini and salt and pepper. Bring to boil and simmer until chicken is well cooked (about 1 hour). In pressure cooker, cook under pressure for 20-30 minutes. Remove chicken from soup. Add the rice to cook while the chicken cools enough to handle and you remove the meat from the bones. Return the meat to the pot. Adjust salt as needed, and serve.





This makes a hearty soup with the rice soaking up a lot of the water, but it is delicious! You can add water to thin the consistency to your preference.Chicken soup recipes pretty please and Thank you... The more the better....?

I havent cooked chicken soup for about 3 years because i turned vegtarian!





I have my handy dandy cookbook, heres 2 recipes (they both have like 4 hearts next to them so i must have liked them!)





#1


Hearty Chicken Soup!


1 (2 to 3 pound) whole chicken


5 carrots, chopped


2 onions, chopped


3 stalks celery, with leaves, minced


2 cubes chicken bouillon


1 red bell pepper, diced


1 (15 ounce) can sweet corn


3/4 cup barley





DIRECTIONS


Clean chicken thoroughly in fresh, cold running water and remove giblets. Remove as much excess skin from bird as possible and discard. With the force of your hands, add pressure to the back bone of the chicken to crush the bones. If you crack the legs at the joints it will release the cartilage which will add more flavor to the soup. Place crushed chicken and giblets into a large stock pot.


Using a food processor, grate 2 carrots, 1 onion, and all of the celery. Add to stock pot and cover chicken with water. Place the remaining carrots and onions that were not grated, bouillon cubes and red bell pepper into the pot. Bring to a boil for 5 minutes and then simmer for one hour.


Add barley and continue to cook for another hour.


Remove from heat and carefully remove the chicken and giblets from the pot; placing them into a large, clean shallow bowl. Pull the meat from the chicken and dice. Return chicken meat to pot and add sweet corn. Can be served immediately or refrigerated or frozen for later use.





Notes Ive added: 鈾?Add oyster crackers and a bit of hot sauce!
