CHICKEN SOUP (PHILIPPINE STYLE)

Steps:

• Cut the whole chicken in pieces. This will help it to cook faster! Boil chicken until cooked, then take them out and place them in a large bowl to cool. SAVE THE CHICKEN STOCK! (You will need this!)
• As you're waiting for the chicken to cool down, start preping your veggies.
• Slice the carrots in 3, dice the celery, dice the onion, and shred the cabbage. Set these all aside.
• Now that the chicken is cooled down, shred it.
• In a large stock pot, place 3/4 of a stick of butter into the pot to melt. Add the onions and cook until transparent, and then add the chicken and garlic powder to saute. When the chicken is all nice and aromatic with the onion and garlic --
• POUR the stock into the pot. (I told you that you would need this!).
• When it comes to a boil, add the carrots, celery, cabbage, macaroni (or shells) and chicken bullion. Mix it good!
• Add the remaining butter to the soup. It will look like OIL, but it is not. This brings out the flavor of the soup!
• Let simmer and when the macaroni (or shells) are all done, you're ready to eat it!
• We always add CARNATION EVAPORATED MILK for a creamer soup, but it's all up to you. Most people don't like to do that becuase they THINK it will spoil. It's NOT fresh milk! So you can add it!
• We usually serve this with GARLIC BREAD topped with Parmesan cheese!
• This will become a favorite in your house too!

FILIPINO CHICKEN SOUP WITH COCONUT RICE

Steps:

• Place a heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add olive oil to coat the bottom of the pot. Sprinkle the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper and add to the pot, skin-side down. Cook until deeply golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes per side, then mix in the garlic, ginger, coriander, turmeric and cayenne. Briefly saute, then add 8 cups chicken stock. Bring to a simmer, then cook until the chicken is cooked through, 20 to 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and strain, reserving the chicken. When the chicken is cool enough to handle, pull the meat and discard the skin and bones. Add back to the broth along with the fish sauce and bok choy. Keep warm.
• Place a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the jasmine rice and remaining 2 cups chicken stock and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a strong simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover and cook until the rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let stand for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, scrape the coconut cream off the top of the coconut milk. (If there is no separation, refrigerate the can of coconut milk for 1 hour; save the remaining coconut milk for another use.) Fold the coconut cream into the rice, then place quenelles (small oblong dollops) of rice in serving bowls.
• Garnish the rice with the sliced scallions, chiles and torn Thai basil. Ladle the chicken around the rice along with the broth. Serve with squeezes of lime.
