boil about 4 chicken thighs until cooked done - put in strainer until cool. While it's cooling add a can of chicken broth then add your veggies like chopped celery, broccoli, cauliflower, scallions, mushrooms, bell peppers, squash, zucchini and carrots if you like (I don't add carrots since I'm a low-carber), kosher salt (I don't add salt because the sodium in the broth really is plenty) and pepper. Skin the chicken, shred it while putting back in the broth with the veggies.Anyone Know any good Recipes for Chicken Soup??
I make this for my family and they love it.


I boil some chicken and when it almost cooked you add some veggies, like carrots, squash, potatoes, and then make some spanish rice on a seperate pan, When it is all done you get a bowl for who ever is eating, put some rice on it and the chicken soup w/veggies on top, and there you have it, its really easy. You can serve it with corn tortillas. Yummy.
Funny you should ask! I just made my famous ';mom's'; chicken soup yesterday. Here's the recipe:


1 chicken, skinned and cut up


Water to cover. (Use an 8 to 10 qt. pot)


Onions, 2 lg. cut in small chunks


Carrots, 5 lg. scraped %26amp; cut into 1/4'; pieces


Celery, 5 stalks, cleaned and chopped


Chicken Stock, 1 Qt. in box


Salt %26amp; pepper to taste


Poultry seasoning, 1/2 to 1 tsp.


Rice, about 1/3 cup


Noodles, THIN, a full handful


Extra water, IF NEEDED.


Parsley, chopped





Place cut up chicken and onions in water to cover, in lg. pot,


and SLOW boil for about 30 min. Add carrots and celery,


salt %26amp; pepper. Cover and simmer another 10 min. Take the


chicken out, cool enough to handle, and remove the bones,


break chicken into small pieces.To liquid in pot, add the


poultry seasoning, and add back the chicken pieces. Cover


and simmer about an hour. Add Chicken stock and thin


noodles, plus some chopped parsley. Slow boil for another


15 to 20 min. (NOTE) If desired, add veggies such as string


beans, and peas,(but NO veggies that are strong, like


brussel sprouts or cauliflower. If you don't like thin noodles,


use wider noodles, but DON'T put them into soup too soon,


or they'll get mushy. Believe me, you'll LOVE THIS SOUP.


If soup appears too thick at the end, add about 1 cup of


water and heat through.Adjust salt %26amp; pepper to your taste.
