CHICKEN AND RICE SOUP



Chicken and Rice Soup image

Provided by Nancy Fuller

Categories     appetizer

Time 2h25m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 leftover roast chicken carcass, meat picked off (reserve for the stew)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
8 black peppercorns
2 stalks celery, cut into chunks
1 bay leaf
1 carrot, cut into chunks
1 onion, cut into chunks
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, chopped
2 carrots, unpeeled and diced
2 stalks celery, diced
1 onion, diced
1 cup chopped kale
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups canned plum tomatoes
2 cups leftover cooked long-grain brown rice
1 cup leftover chicken meat, chopped
Chopped fresh parsley, for serving
Grated Parmesan, for serving

Steps:

  • For the leftover roast chicken stock: Put the cleaned chicken carcass in a large saucepan along with the salt, peppercorns, celery, bay leaf, carrots and onions and cover with cold water, about 8 cups. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to a low simmer and cook for 1 1/2 hours. Strain the stock through a fine-mesh sieve or a colander lined with paper towels. You should have 6 cups stock after cooking.
  • For the soup: Heat the olive oil in a large soup pot over medium-high heat until hot. Add the garlic, carrots, celery and onions and saute until tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the kale and cook for about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Hand-crush the canned tomatoes directly into the pot; it's nice to keep a little texture with the tomatoes. Add the chicken stock and simmer the soup on medium heat for 20 minutes. Fold in the rice and chicken and simmer for 5 more minutes. Finish with chopped parsley and serve in warm bowls with grated Parmesan on top.

CHICKEN SOUP WITH RICE FROM SCRATCH



Chicken Soup With Rice from Scratch image

This recipe is from a Pillsbury Classic cookbook and, with a few minor modifications, I wanted to share it. It is a truly home-made with love chicken soup. I am making it today because....I feel a cold coming on and just want to curl up with a steaming bowl of deliciousness!! :-) I suppose you could make this in a crock pot but the thought of a soup pot on the stove is comfort in itself!! (Note: If you prefer noodles to rice, add 1 cup of uncooked egg noodles during last 10 minutes of cooking time).

Provided by Sues Kitchen

Categories     Chicken

Time 3h

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/2-3 lbs frying chicken, cut up
10 cups water (or you can use half chicken broth and half water)
1 medium onion, chopped
salt
1/2 teaspoon thyme leaves
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 bay leaf
6 peppercorns or 1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 stalks celery, sliced
2 carrots, sliced
1/2 cup uncooked rice
1/2 cup frozen peas
1 -2 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional) or 1 -2 tablespoon sliced green onion (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine chicken and water in large pot. Bring to a boil. Skimm off any scum that rises to the top.
  • Reduce heat to med/low; cover and simmer 15 minutes.
  • Add onion, salt, thyme, bay leaf, garlic and peppercorns. Simmer covered for additional 35 to 45 minutes or until chicken falls off the bone.
  • Remove chicken, bay leaf and peppercorns from broth; cool.
  • Remove chicken from bones; cut into bite size pieces.
  • Skim fat from broth. You may want to put broth into the fridge for several hours or overnight. It is easier to remove the fat.
  • Bring broth to a boil. Stir in chicken pieces, celery, carrots and rice - I add a little more onion too. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 30 minutes or until veggies/rice are tender. I add the peas for the last 10 minutes. If you are using noodles instead of rice, add uncooked noodles at this stage.
  • Add parsley or green onion if desired.

CHICKEN SOUP WITH RICE OR NOODLES



Chicken Soup With Rice or Noodles image

I adapted this from a WW cookbook for my parents who always get chicken with rice soup. It is best when made totally from scratch and the chicken is cooked in a crock-pot but can be made using a store roasted chicken. I have also used red leaf lettuce and spinach in place of the escarole.

Provided by greksgirl

Categories     Whole Chicken

Time 4h30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 (3 -4 lb) chicken
1 (48 ounce) can chicken broth (I use Swanson's low fat)
1 stalk celery
1 carrot
1 pinch saffron
1 pinch sage
1 pinch thyme
1 bay leaf
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
2 -3 carrots, coarsely grated
2 stalks celery, thinly sliced
2/3 cup short-grain rice or 2 cups Reames frozen noodles
1 head escarole, washed and coarsely chopped
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Remove excess fat and giblets from the chicken and discard.
  • In a 5-qt. crock-pot combine the chicken broth, chicken, celery, carrot, saffron, sage, thyme, bay leaf and kosher salt.
  • Cook on high for 4-5 hours or until the chicken falls off the bone. Remove the chicken and cool; debone and cut into bite-sized pieces.
  • Strain the broth through a sieve lined with 2 paper towels, this removes the sediment and some of the fat. This can be done a day ahead and more fat can be removed from the top of the chilled broth.
  • In a large sauce pan heat the oil over medium-high heat, saute the onion, carrots and celery until the onion is transulent.
  • Add the strained broth and bring to a boil.
  • Add the rice or noodles and simmer covered for 15 minutes.
  • Stir in the chicken, cover; simmer until the rice/noodles are tender and the chicken is heated through.
  • Remove from heat and add the escarole; cover and set aside until the escarole wilts, about 2 minutes.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste.

  • If you don't have any cooked chicken, you can use a rotisserie chicken.
  • To make the soup ahead of time, let it cool completely and then store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the soup for up to 3 months.
  • Conclusion:
