The Friday after christmas, I spent all day in bed sick. The hawkins were sick, my aunt was getting over pneumonia and my sister was not feeling good as well. Thankfully I got over it pretty easily but my sister is still feeling the effects of a lingering cold. Or it is just congestion causing snoring which causes a sore throat, so I decided to use up the last chicken breast and the last of the carrots for chicken and rice soup.
I have made chicken and rice soup before but it came out weird and spiced so I made sure to taste this one a few times. It was a bit salty but enjoyable none the less. I put it together using part of a different soup recipe.
We are planning on going grocery shopping again and I'm tempted to make another soup but I'm not sure. I made the soup a bit creamy because that is how my sister enjoys soup, but I'm probably not going to do that again.
○3 table spoons butter
○Carrots, chopped
○onions, diced
○ garlic cloves, about two grated
○one chicken breast, diced into little squares
○2 bags boil in a bag rice
○32 oz chicken broth
○salt, pepper to taste
Note: can add in some chopped celery too. Can exchange rice for noodles. Can add other things to flavor the soup, I just went for simple.
Follow instructions on boil bag rice, when finished rinse in cold water.
Add in butter to soup pot and melt.
Sauté chicken, carrots and onions til tender (and chicken cooked)
Add in garlic, cook about 2 mins
Pour in broth and bring to a boil then reduce heat.
Add in salt and pepper to taste.
In a bowl, pour in rice first then soup.
Pretty simple soup.
